Noelle Alanís Grows East Coast Presence for Sonic Branding Leaders; Whitney Arnold Leads Ongoing Development of Vault Collections and Partnerships
Stephen Arnold Music, the leaders in Sonic Branding and original music, and the creators of The Vault ‘Anti-Library’ of licensed music, have announced two key personnel appointments.
The company’s national presence has expanded with the appointment of Noelle Alanís as Director of Licensing, Northeast USA. Alanís will be based in New York City, following three years working from Stephen Arnold Music‘s headquarters in Dallas. In NYC, she will oversee all of the company’s East Coast clients, with a focus on content producers in New York, Boston, and Washington, DC.
Alanís will also continue to oversee her client portfolio, which includes 100 local TV stations and the Nexstar station group, plus custom and syndicated news accounts for UPS, Jewelry TV, Multimedios, Thai PBS, TV Azteca, and RNN News.
“Noelle has proven to be a valuable member of the Stephen Arnold Music family,” says Stephen Arnold, President of Stephen Arnold Music. “Her attention to detail and ability to connect with her clients truly sets her apart. With a base in New York City, in addition to offices in Dallas and San Diego, we can personally connect with even more of our clients.”
At the Vault “Anti-Library”, Whitney Arnold has been named VP Music Services. In his position, Arnold will be responsible for the ongoing development of The Vault‘s extremely selective catalog of licensed music. Additions to The Vault will come via Arnold’s strong relationships with elite music collections worldwide, as well as highly accomplished individual songwriters.
The appointment with the Vault marks Whitney Arnold’s return to Stephen Arnold Music, where he first worked at the age of 16. From there, Arnold worked extensively in Live Sound first in New Orleans, then Melbourne Australia and finally touring Europe with such renowned artists as Stevie Wonder, Kanye West, BB King, Mark Ronson and Adele.
“Whitney Arnold has long been familiar with the extremely high standards we’ve set for The Vault,” says Stephen Arnold. “His leadership will be key to growing our customer base of local stations, networks, production companies and ad agencies, and supplying them with the best ready-to-license music options available.”

“Ǝvolution” Comes Full Circle At The Chelsea Film Festival
The Chelsea Film Festival, running from October 16th through October 20th, 2024, at Regal Cinemas here in Union Square, is set to host the East Coast premiere of Ǝvolution, a thought-provoking experimental micro-short film that proves big ideas can come in small packages and in perfect circles.
In just 1 minute 16 seconds, this cinematic gem by Award-Winning Director Romina Schwedler, with original music by Argentine Composer Ignacio Montoya Carlotto, explores a cycle as old as time: life leads to progress, progress leads to destruction, and destruction, well, leads back to life. But is this vicious circle unbreakable? Ǝvolution suggests the answer is yes, unless we decide to open our eyes.
Inspired by the overwhelming number of recent events that threaten human existence, Ǝvolution, possibly the shortest film in this 12th edition of the festival, plays out entirely through the symbolism of circles, cleverly illustrating —in the blink of an eye— the repeating patterns of history, and confronting viewers with the uncomfortable truth that our so-called “progress” may, in fact, be guiding us to our own ruin.Premiering at the Regal 14 Union Square, New York City, on October 18, 2024, at 11 a.m., Romina Schwedler's micro-short, featuring Leah Young with cinematography by Alan J. Carmona, will be sure to spark conversations longer than the film itself! Forcing viewers to reconsider the true meaning of evolution, not just as a biological process, but as a reflection of our collective journey as humans.
With a string of festival appearances across the globe, including CineGlobe at CERN (Switzerland/France), Oscar®... Read More
