Carrie Brzezinski-Hsu gets Disney's first company-wide creative agency
Main Street folds Yellow Shoes and The Hive into one marketing hub, giving Disney a single creative engine across entertainment, sports, experiences, and consumer products.
Disney has launched Main Street, its first company-wide in-house creative agency, led by Carrie Brzezinski-Hsu, Head of Creative Execution. The move consolidates Yellow Shoes and The Hive into one structure, signaling a tighter, faster marketing model that other large brands may now feel pressure to copy.
Disney just put a formal name and structure around something big: Main Street, its first company-wide in-house creative agency, is now live. Carrie Brzezinski-Hsu, Disney's Head of Creative Execution, will lead it, and the company's prior agencies, Yellow Shoes and The Hive, have been consolidated under the new venture. In plain English, Disney is no longer running separate creative shops for different corners of the empire. It is trying to pull more of that work into one place, under one roof, with one operating model.
That matters because the old setup was fragmented by design. Yellow Shoes handled Disney Parks, Disney Cruise Line and more, while The Hive oversaw creative for the company's films and television projects. Main Street brings those worlds together. Disney says the new agency is designed to unlock the power of the company's collective creativity through closer collaboration, shared purpose, and a unified approach to storytelling and brand expression. For a company whose value lives and dies on consistency of story, character, and brand feel, that is not a cosmetic rebrand. It is an operating decision.
