Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJonathan Bresman is a creative brand and editorial consultant with over a decade of experience crafting storyworlds, character bibles, and transmedia strategies for clients including Hasbro, MAD Magazine/DC Comics, Lucasfilm, Bose, and EBSCO. He blends editorial rigor with product and gameplay design—having contributed to toys, board games, apps, video games, and children’s series—while shepherding projects from pitch to production. Known for turning complex technical or conceptual ideas into playful, accessible narratives, he has driven thought leadership campaigns and conference presentations that increased audience engagement. His work ranges from scripting educational games and animated shorts to developing IP bibles and advising on franchise growth and licensing. Based in Newton, Massachusetts, he pairs an academic background in government and communication/education with hands-on creative leadership across publishing, toys, and entertainment. An unexpected thread in his profile: he has ghostwritten and consulted on high-profile pop-culture properties (including The Art of Star Wars: Episode I) while also enjoying offbeat curiosities—“I like pi”—that inform his quirky, idea-driven storytelling.
