LOS ANGELES (May 30, 2025)—Multi-faceted creative agency Saylor—the team behind culture-driving campaigns for Netflix, Disney, Paramount+ and Prime Video—today announced the launch of its new independent creative studio Elevado.
Founded in 2021, Saylor has become the go-to partner for entertainment brands seeking bold storytelling, cultural fluency, and premium execution in a rapidly evolving media landscape. Now, the agency is expanding its next-gen creative leadership and commitment to tech-forward storytelling with Elevado, a new studio devoted to AI-powered production. Spearheaded by Saylor CEO Will Trowbridge in partnership with acclaimed creative director Rupert Cresswell, Elevado will operate under the Saylor umbrella, but function both as an extension of the agency and as a stand-alone entity, serving other agencies and brands directly.
“AI has ushered in an incredibly exciting time for the creative and production industry,” said Trowbridge. “Our intention with Elevado is to build a creative studio to meet this moment head-on, and utilize ai-technology to elevate creativity.”
Cresswell, who joins as Chief Creative Officer of Elevado and Head of Innovation at Saylor, brings over two decades of creative leadership experience across London, New York, and Los Angeles. He cut his teeth at MPC (The Mill), then went on to serve as Executive Creative Director at Alkemy X, driving award-winning creative work. He’s spearheaded global campaigns for Adidas, Google, Meta, Disney, Samsung and Playstation. Most recently, Cresswell combined his artistic vision and technological curiosity to create Prospex Park, an AI‑driven art project, and exhibited in Tokyo, London, and Los Angeles.
“We’re in a time of rapid creative evolution,” said Cresswell. “Our hybrid, artist-driven approach to integrating AI helps brands tap into new visual languages, formats, and experiences that are only possible through this intersection of tech and craft.”
Elevado offers full-scale creative and production services for brands and agencies navigating the rapidly evolving world of AI. Whether clients are early in their exploration or already building AI into their workflows, Elevado meets them where they are, designing tailored solutions that are grounded in creativity, strategic thinking and ethical best practices.
