In an increasingly digital world, brands and organisations need more than conventional advertising to capture attention. They need experiences that audiences can see, hear, interact with and remember. ONYVA! Studio is a Leeds based creative technology studio taking this approach by combining design, technology, storytelling and culture to create immersive work across physical and digital spaces. Founded in early 2025 by creative partners Scott Parkin and Andrew J Brown, the studio brings together experience in advertising, production and communications with a strong interest in emerging technologies and interdisciplinary creativity.
A Creative Partnership Built on Experience
ONYVA! Studio was established by Parkin and Brown as a creative partnership shaped by years of experience in agencies and commercial production. Brown is a BAFTA nominated Creative Director with more than 30 years of experience, while Parkin is a multidisciplinary designer and creative with 15 years of experience working with global and emerging brands.
The studio's previous work spans interactive experiences, immersive events, VR and AR projects, video production, music, design and branding. Its professional experience includes collaborations with organisations such as the BBC, The FA, Ribena, Lucozade, Heinz, Great Ormond Street Hospital and the UK Government, covering projects ranging from app development and social media to television advertising and web experiences.
At the heart of ONYVA!'s approach is the belief that creativity works best when disciplines overlap. The studio describes itself as design led and culture driven, bringing together visual, audio and interactive technology skills. Its work draws on design, music, technology and performance with a particular interest in combining real and virtual spaces to offer audiences new ways of interpreting the world.
Content Design and Production
One of ONYVA!'s core service areas is content design and production, covering video, XR, web content and CGI/motion graphics. This gives brands and organisations access to a broad creative toolkit for communicating ideas through moving image, interactive formats and digitally produced visual content.
Video production can provide the narrative foundation for campaigns, brand stories and entertainment led content, while CGI and motion graphics allow the studio to build visual worlds that would be difficult or impossible to create through conventional production alone. XR adds another dimension, enabling audiences to engage with content through extended reality experiences.
The combination reflects ONYVA!'s wider philosophy; technology is not treated as an end in itself but as a creative medium. By bringing production, design and technology together, the studio can develop content that is visually distinctive while remaining focused on storytelling and audience engagement.
Brand Design and Experience
ONYVA! also works in communication, offering brand strategy and design, art direction and advertising and brand communications.
This service offering connects strategic thinking with visual execution. Brand strategy and design can establish how an organisation presents itself, while art direction shapes the creative language used across different touchpoints. Advertising and brand communications then extend that identity into campaigns and audience facing experiences.
The studio's background in visual communication, film and animation contributes to a strong emphasis on narrative and crafted aesthetics. Its experience across established brands and organisations also gives ONYVA! an understanding of how creative ideas need to work within real world communication and production requirements.
Immersive Design and Creative Technology
The third pillar of ONYVA!'s services is culture, expressed through immersive design and build. This includes experiential projects, event installations and creative technology.
These capabilities allow the studio to move beyond traditional screens and create environments in which audiences become part of the experience. Event installations can use light, sound, digital media and interactive technology to transform physical spaces, while experiential work can give brands, cultural organisations and other clients new ways to engage their audiences.
A strong example of this direction is Eternal Ensemble, an immersive light and sound installation created around spatial audio and light projection. The project premiered at Lightpool in Blackpool in 2025 and subsequently appeared at several UK light festivals. It also won the SHINE Award at the 2025 Light Up the North awards.
Solutions for Brands, Agencies and Culture
Rather than positioning itself around a single medium, ONYVA! offers an adaptable creative model for agencies, arts organisations and brands. The studio says it collaborates with these groups to produce experiences in real and digital spaces and to tell stories in imaginative ways.
That flexibility is particularly valuable for projects that require several disciplines at once. A single brief might involve brand development, moving image, CGI, interactive technology and physical installation. ONYVA!'s interdisciplinary structure enables those elements to be brought together within a coherent creative vision.
ONYVA! Studio represents a modern approach to creative production, bringing together the craft of design and storytelling with the possibilities of technology. From content production and brand communication to immersive installations and experiential technology, its services are designed to create work that audiences can connect with emotionally and physically. With the combined experience of Scott Parkin and Andrew J Brown and a clear interest in the meeting point between physical and virtual worlds, ONYVA! is building a distinctive creative practice from Leeds; one focused on work that is imaginative, human, playful and immediate.
