Richard Arnold is the Executive Producer for AKA. AKA NYC is the leading, fully integrated creative and media agency specializing in live entertainment, arts, attractions, and destinations, based in New York City, with a focus on creating experiences, brands, content, and campaigns that people seek out, enjoy, and share.
AKA believes emotion drives action. They create entertainment that sells entertainment. Experiences that sell experiences. Human, hands-on, hell yeah moments that make people get up, engage and connect.
They combine the art of design and storytelling with the science of data and technology to respond to the complex challenges brands face in today's fragmented landscape. AKA is content-forward and data-fueled. Their work is about the audience and what gets them going. It’s about big ideas and real results. In real time. They move people through the power of entertainment.
An agency is only as good as its people, and AKA is full of the best. They're an eclectic group of more than 100 artists, storytellers, leaders, musicians, bakers and jam makers, comedians, authors, Ph.D. recipients, and pet parents. They're the creators who ask “what if,” the managers who say “here’s how,” and the teammates who cheer “we can.”
