01 — Who We Are

Who
We Are.

Studio Kanonik is a boutique visual design agency based in Santa Monica, built for the games and entertainment industry. We work with studios, publishers, and creators who need identity systems, marketing creative, and brand strategy that can keep pace with the work they're making.

Founded by Oscar de Leon-Sulecio and Kristie Kelley, the studio is small by design. Creative direction and production ownership in the same room, from brief to delivery — no hand-offs, no filler, no gap between the vision and the execution.

We don't take on everything. We take on the right things, and we see them through.

Oscar
de Leon-Sulecio

Oscar de Leon-Sulecio sets the creative vision and quality standard for everything Kanonik produces. With over 20 years inside the games and entertainment industries, he has contributed to the launch of five Activision titles, led visual design for the sports and movies verticals at Paramount+, and built creative for game trailers, social campaigns, and global marketing launches.

He has sat inside the departments where these decisions get made — and where the wrong ones cost real visibility. That experience is the foundation of everything Kanonik produces.

04 — What We Believe

What We
Believe.

01

Precision

Every pixel earns its place. Great creative doesn't come from volume — it comes from understanding the industry, knowing the audience, and refusing to ship something that isn't right. We don't generalize. We specialize.

02

Patience

Right takes the time it takes. This industry moves fast and ships hard, but creative that can survive a global launch without losing its identity requires care. We don't cut corners to hit a timeline.

03

Pursuit

We don't stop until it's there. The name Kanonik comes from the Kaqchikel Mayan word for "hunting" — precision, patience, and pursuit. It's not a metaphor. It's how we work.

04

Full Attention

We are small by design. We don't take on everything — we take on the right things, and we see them through. No hand-offs. No filler. No gap between the vision and the execution.

We build brands that belong in the game.
