Jonathan Elbers
At a very young age, Jonathan already knew what he wanted to do: making films. Together with friends at school he made the most versatile number of quick grabs and films possible, already hinting at his versatility later on. Jonathan Elbers completed the Dutch Film Academy and at CZAR jr., he directed some very cool films, including his viral for LG (Mini Beam), which got some serious recognition in Cannes during the Young Directors Award. Because of his comedic timing and sharp eye for detail, Jonathan is sometimes compared to a young Bart Timmer. Let’s see how that turns out.
