Everyone who works at or with RAVE is inspired by kindness, respect, passion and humility.

How it all started

RAVE Collective began with a legacy of kindness. It grew out of a love for the creative and never backing down from a challenge.  The idea that “Yes lives in a world of no” is still the driving force that motivates us to this day. We never let the fear of failure or rejection get in the way of fresh ideas, groundbreaking concepts and big-picture thinking. 

After 16 years of collaborating with our print partners at The Refinery, RAVE collective is now able to give focus to and clarity on what we do best: unforgettable, AV-centric entertainment marketing.

Creative Director

Stewart’s fascination with magic and the intersection of art and technology drew him to Los Angeles to pursue filmmaking. It took five years after arriving in 2004 to realize he’d fallen in love with the city. By then, he was directing his first feature film in Romania, had been kidnapped in Brazil, and secured several development deals. In parallel, he honed his skills in entertainment marketing, working on trailers, design, and motion graphics. Today, as a creative director, he’s honored to collaborate with talented teams, working on countless projects across theatrical and streaming platforms. His career has taken him around the world to supervise marketing shoots. Horror films keep him up at night, and coffee, trailers, and title sequences get him up in the morning. On weekends, you’ll find him hiking with his dog, Lucy, while listening to an audiobook.
