About Eli

Meet Eli Jarra, Senior Artist and VFX Supervisor at Technicolor, Hollywood.
Originally from Detroit, Michigan, Eli graduated from Specs Howard School of Broadcast Arts with a degree in Broadcasting. Over the span of his VFX
career, Eli has contributed to over 150 projects, including feature films -
Guardians of the Galaxy 2, Thor: Ragnarok,
Captain America: Civil War, Oblivion, Spider Man: Homecoming, Dr. Strange, Ghost in the Shell -
television series – Veep, Mad Men, Mozart in the Jungle, Grey’s Anatomy, Eastwick, Smallville - and various commercial ads.
Eli's work on Smallville has garnered him multiple VES Award nominations and two VES Awards: one for Outstanding Compositing in a Broadcast
Program and the other for Best Matte Painting in a Live-Action Broadcast Program. He is a member of the Visual Effects Society, Academy of Television Arts & Science, The Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association, and The Planetary Society. In 2018 Eli received an Honorary Mention from the NDA association for his astro-photographic work at Kings Canyon National Park.
One of Eli’s proudest moments was working with Michael Jackson on the This Is It tour. He says working in the new ACES color format on Oblivion and shooting high frame rate 3D on dual Red Dragons rank at the top of his greatest professional accomplishments. He is thankful to be able to work with the most talented individuals in the industry on a daily basis.
Eli is excited to be developing content specifically for the Oculus Rift and participating in the latest VR movement. He cites MC Esher, James Cameron, and Roger Deakins as his artistic influences and he would love the opportunity to work with Alex Proyas, Michel Gondry, and Gaspar Noe.
The best advice Eli has been given and embraces every day is “don’t make decisions when you’re angry, ignore the naysayers, and, happiness
is having something to look forward to.”

• Guardians of the Galaxy 2
• Black Panther
• Thor: Ragnarok
• The Revenant
• Ant Man
• Dolphin Tale 2
