Kate Soczka Joins Uppercut as Executive Producer in Atlanta

Uppercut has added Kate Soczka as executive producer in Atlanta, GA. Soczka’s expertise and diverse experience in the production and advertising industries will provide end-to-end creative guidance and support to the post-production house’s creative network.

Kate Soczka moved to Atlanta from Chicago in 2020, where she cultivated her creative career including serving as head of production at Carbon and producing for brands such as MillerCoors, Constellation Brands, KitchenAid, Jeep, Capital One, Lululemon, and Cars.com. Partnering with agencies and marketing companies, Soczka established herself as a collaborative partner for on-set production, post-production, and live events.  

An Emmy award winner, Soczka’s array of experiences across multimedia creation have significantly influenced her leadership and amassed her toolkit to tackle any project. Most recently, she held tenure as the video operations lead for The Coca-Cola Company Creative Studios, where she managed studio operations, creative production, and development of international creative teams producing internal and social messaging for the world’s largest beverage company.   

Soczka says of becoming Uppercut’s newest executive producer: “I’m excited to be in a fresh market like Atlanta and showcase the special talents of the Uppercut team. I’m looking forward to leading the Uppercut powerhouse in the South while cultivating the creative community this area offers. We’ve got an incredible working space at The Works and I envision Uppercut as a collaborative leader in this market for innovative storytelling.”

“Kate is an incredible leader,” says Micah Scarpelli, editor and owner of Uppercut. “She’s truly done everything as a producer in the ad space and has such a rich history in post-production as well. She’s authentic in how much she cares about the artists, teams, and clients she works with. She wants people to know they’re valued and support their growth and does it all while steering the ship toward excellence and producing incredible work. We’re fortunate to have her with us at Uppercut and look forward to working with her as our presence in Atlanta continues to grow.”
