About

Kenneth Kegley is a Design Director at Deutsch and the current Governor of Motion & Title Design at the Television Academy.

Over the years, Kenneth has had the privilege to collaborate with some of the most talented people on a wide range of projects, from television branding to title design to full-funnel campaigns for global brands.

As the cofounder of Current Studio, he draws upon original storytelling and visual experimentation, as a way to blur the line between art and commerce. Kenneth has directed short films for Mezcal El Silencio, Motionpoems, as well as art directed the graphics for the long-awaited Rihanna Documentary, yet to be released.

He joined Deutsch in 2020 as Design Director, helping with the launch of Elton John Eyewear, Love & Sports, as well as over-seeing the visual identity for Walmart+.

Before joining Deutsch, Kenneth worked on teasers for FX's American Crime Story: The Assassination of Gianni Versace, and American Horror Story, as well as broadcast graphics packages for Snowfall, the 83rd Oscars, and ESPN's World Cup 2010. He has also worked on title design for Mission Impossible: Fallout, Final Destination 5, and Heroes Reborn, among others.

In addition to overseeing multiple projects, Kenneth is also leading the social media campaign for the Television Academy's Motion & Title Design Peer Group. Since joining, Kenneth's efforts have resulted in a significant increase in submissions for both motion and title design, and boosted the social presence of the Television Academy. In 2024, Kenneth was appointed to the Board of Governors, continuing to volunteer his time and effort to better serve the community.
