Jonathan Berube

Director | Senior Art Director

Los Angeles, California, United States

Summary

Originally from Montreal Canada, I started my journey in filmmaking at Sheridan College where I completed a Classical Animation Filmmaking Degree.

After a few VFX roles on feature films, I later on spent 12 years at Blizzard Entertainment overseeing most Starcraft game trailers and assisted on other projects such as the Warcraft feature film.

I had the chance to spend the last 4 years of my career working on James Cameron's Avatar Sequels and I am now bringing my 20 years experience to Directing and Art Directing the highest quality game trailers and live action / CG hybrid commercials and episodic content.
