Jason Brubaker began his career as an artist in 1996 being represented by Famous Frames, a storyboarding agency in Los Angeles, where he drew hundreds of commercial storyboards for film and television. Some of his credits include Blade, Pitch Black and Van Helsing.
In 2002, Brubaker began working as a traditional animator for motion design studios in Los Angeles and New York and was soon art directing animated commercials. In 2009, he began working as a Visual Development Artist at Dreamworks Animation on the Kung Fu Panda trilogy as well as many other animated movies.
He also created a comic titled reMIND which won the Xeric Award in 2010 and was placed on the Great Graphic Novels for Teens list 2012 (GGNT). With the success of his comic publishing he was able to quit his full-time job at Dreamworks Animation in December of 2014 to fully pursue publishing his own comics.
In 2015 he moved back to Idaho and produces graphic novels full-time.

I have found over the last 15 years of using social media that it is not very effective for me and my business or personal enjoyment. It fractures my time too much and keeps me from doing the things I love to do—like making stuff.
