Kuba Bogaczyński is well-traveled, but you will almost always find him at the intersection of creative ideation, interaction design, and visual communication. He’s on a never-ending mission to create engaging narratives, intuitive experiences, and bespoke visual systems, and his latest endeavors have him leading the team at interactive agency Wildebeest across the grasslands to drink from the digital marketing stream.

An industrial shift in marketing now requires a holistic expertise that connects creative, technology, and business. Los Angeles-based Wildebeest has a team of cross-functional industry veterans that spans multiple continents and serves businesses all over the world. Still, the agency manages to be hands-on, its leadership team often personally taking the reigns in being a full-service digital partner for brands ready to win through design thinking and agile product development. Its clients seek a competitive advantage that only a creative alignment of design and technology can provide.

For many years, Bogaczyński worked with the Wildebeest team as a freelance Designer and Art Director. He was recently brought on full-time to lead the Wildebeest creative team expansion as the boutique agency increases its global footprint.

Working with global brands is something with which the award-winning creative director is very familiar, as he has worked with innovative brands and creative leaders across four continents. His experience goes beyond the traditional digital marketing skill set, that many in his position have. After 15 years at agencies like Jam3, DDB, Unit9, Resn, and Publicis, Bogaczyński spent two years designing complex interactive narratives for global digital entertainment companies like Sony Interactive Entertainment’s PlayStation®. He also left his mark at Adobe, Google, HBO, IKEA, Marvel, Spotify, Starbucks, and more.

His vast experience offers a fresh perspective on harmonizing interactive design and technology to help Wildebeest lead brands into a new era of digital clarity.

Over the last seven years, the agency helped Microsoft impress at E3, gave Google a real-time competitive advantage in March Madness, helped Kelley Blue Book use augmented reality (AR) to standardize vehicle appraisals, and brought artificial intelligence (AI) into the driver’s seat at General Motors. Most recently Wildebeest helped Cheetos win the Super Bowl and a Grand Prix at Cannes (“Can’t Touch This” Cheetos Popcorn) with its AR Cheetle Detector, and also helped the company give back to Hispanic communities with Bad Bunny in phase two of the project.

Bogaczyński’s work has been featured in Adweek, The Guardian, Fast Company, and Wired, and was recognized by Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity, The One Show, and Webby Awards among others. His projects have earned over 20 FWAs and were nominated for Awwwards Site of the Year 3 times in a row. He currently serves as an FWA Juror.
