Jogger Studios has announced the addition of Creative Director Josh Kirschenbaum, a visionary artist celebrated for his creativity and relentless curiosity.
With an impressive career working with top brands and studios such as Apple, Facebook, Google, Ford, Honda, Disney, 20th Century Fox, and Paramount, Josh has consistently brought to life visual effects, sequences, and creative solutions across all media platforms.
“Josh’s intentional and thoughtful approach to projects of any size is truly exceptional,” says Jogger EP Alicia Cargile. “I’ve had the pleasure of working with him for over 10 years at various studios, and I’m elated to now have him here as my partner at Jogger. Our mutual plans for creative expansion and growth, while still maintaining the personal connection with our clients, is truly going to be a next-level glow-up.”
Josh’s journey into digital media began at a local news station where his father worked. His fascination with the instant visualization of ideas on screen ignited a career at the intersection of the technical and creative.
Early on, he served as a liaison to James Cameron’s Lightstorm Entertainment, supporting post-production on Terminator 2: The Special Edition and True Lies. He later transitioned to film production, overseeing graphics display for iconic films like Congo, Spawn, Twister, Jerry Maguire, Dante’s Peak, and Titanic.

His extensive experience, exceptional knowledge, and his drive to keep learning and exploring makes not only our team but also our clients feel confident and at ease,” adds Amburr Farls, Managing Partner. “We are thrilled to have him here with us to help lead Jogger into its next chapter.”
Drawn to the fast-paced world of short form, Josh has applied his production and post-production expertise to hundreds of advertising projects, expanding the visual effects and finishing capabilities at various renowned studios. His career, whether in entertainment, advertising, or both, is fueled by storytelling and the inspiration that arises from collaboration.
“Advertising is all about appealing to people’s ongoing delight in story,” Kirschenbaum concludes. “Working in this format means you have the opportunity to consistently explore new ideas and expand your perspective, all driven by the question, ‘What story do we want to tell?’ It’s a never-ending challenge of the best kind.”
