About me

Directing large-scale projects for clients as diverse as Toyota and Google, Anheuser Busch, Panasonic, and a foray into feature filmmaking, Jonny Zeller’s work isn’t best described within the confines of one specific genre. The common thread? Powerful cinematic storytelling. Whether that goal is accomplished through the strength of a story or the beauty of a single shot, he always makes the most out of every opportunity.

Based in Los Angeles, Jonny has directed branded and commercial content with some of the world’s biggest talent in and out of the studio on five continents, touching down in countries like Nicaragua, Laos, Israel, and Zambia.

Both of his commercial and branded work have gone on to secure various awards including 3 American Advertising Awards, Webby, Reel Screen and Heremes Award honors.

When he’s not on the other side of the world crafting campaigns, you can probably find him hitting jumps on his snowboard, scuba diving (hopefully with no sharks around), or hunting down the best food in LA. If you ask nicely, he’ll probably share some of his secret spots…

The Creative Coalition

Board Member "Young Hollywood" division
In 1989, a group of writers, actors, producers, directors, agents, designers and lawyers from the entertainment world and founded The Creative Coalition. We were not — and are not — a precisely like-minded political group, but rather people who longed to use our communication skills and political savvy in more effective ways. We debated and argued and it was finally decided that The Creative Coalition would be a place to educate ourselves on all sides of issues so as to become as well informed as possible before talking to the press, to policy makers, or to the public. We wanted to get beyond celebrity-in-politics tokenism and photo-ops to move inside the political process-to actually help shape policy.
