We partner with brands, artists, and institutions to create work that resonates, inspires, and demands attention. From culture-shaping campaigns to genre-bending films, every project is a spark of evidence of what happens when creativity catches fire. We're a creative agency and production studio born in New York, built to move the world through strategy, design, storytelling, and immersive experience.

Our collaborators range from emerging artists to global icons, with work spanning media, fashion, tech, music, publishing, and beyond. No matter the medium, we build with intention, energy, and edge.

RIOT was born in the summer of 2015, high above the iconic Orpheum Theater in New York City's vibrant East Village. What began as a bold vision in a neighborhood brimming with creativity quickly grew into one of the world's most sought-after creative agencies.

Rooted in Hudson Yards, New York City, we've cultivated enduring partnerships with some of the world's most iconic brands. These collaborations are founded on trust, powered by creativity, and driven by an unwavering commitment to the extraordinary. At RIOT, we immerse ourselves fully in the essence of every brand we partner with, sharing their vision, fueling their ambition, and igniting bold ideas that innovate, inspire, and leave lasting legacies.

While our heartbeat is unmistakably New York, our vision knows no borders. Wherever you are, we're ready to connect, collaborate, and transform your boldest ideas into unforgettable realities.

RIOT Creative Agency Reviews

One of my favorite creative studios to work with ! full stop. Their videos are consistently smart, emotional, and beautifully made, with that rare mix of depth and style. They bring the same level of artistry to storytelling as they do to sound and music. And as a bonus, they’re genuinely fun people to collaborate with : thoughtful, curious, and endlessly creative. "

Richard Shelton's Review Sourced from Google
I had such a great experience working with RIOT. From the very first call, they really listened to what I was trying to do and came back with ideas that felt spot on. The whole process was super smooth. They were organized, creative, and easy to communicate with. What I really appreciated was how collaborative they were. They were right there every step of the way. The end result came out even better than I imagined, and I’ve gotten so many compliments on the work. I’d absolutely work with them again and recommend them to anyone who wants a team that cares as much about the project as you do "

RIOT is one of the best creative agencies in the industry. My team, business partners & production company engage creatively with RIOT on several projects annually. Their work is top quality, sharp looking, always on time, always hits the mark & our outside clients are overwhelmed with how “good it looks”. Highly recommend RIOT! "
