Hi, I’m Jonathan Chance. I’m a multi‑faceted media professional with over 20 years of experience in voice acting, screenwriting, directing, and editing for TV, film, and digital platforms and in the last five years a published comic book writer and producer with Heavy Metal, Antarctic Press, Dead Sky Publishing among others. I thrive on collaborative projects and bringing stories to life through strong storytelling, sound, and visual execution. From indie features to festival‑level projects, I’ve worn many hats—producer, writer, editor, and creator—the power of “voice” whether that be creating stories or be it literal in becoming a character in whatever the creative ask may require I’m always exploring new ways to blend creative ideas and perform audio and visuals to engage audiences and deliver polished results under tight deadlines and deliver a quality product every time.
