Whether orchestrating a train collision within a colorful, computer-animated world, directing actors on where to look at animated unicorns on the streets of New York, or sending stylized secret agents around the globe to make the world safe for models, music and the fundamental freedom to hang, I am very fortunate to be doing what I love - making fun stuff!

Elliot M. Bour began his career working as an animator for Walt Disney Feature Animation on the 1991 Oscar-nominated animated classic, "Beauty and the Beast." During his eight-year tenure, he amassed an impressive list of credits, continuing to work on such hits as "Aladdin," "The Lion King," "Pocahontas" and "Mulan." He made his directorial debut in 2000 with the entertaining action/adventure series, "Spy Groove," for MTV. Shortly thereafter, he revisited Disney, co-directing the animated features "Winnie the Pooh: Springtime with Roo" and "Kronk's New Groove," the hilarious sequel to "The Emperor's New Groove," starring the voices of Patrick Warburton, Tracey Ullman, David Spade and Eartha Kitt. In addition to work in feature films and television series, Elliot has also directed numerous high-profile commercials for top clients such as Best Buy, Dunkin' Donuts and Chef Boyardee, as well as the first-ever animated spots for Mercedes Benz, EA Sports and Truth. In 2008, he directed a Super Bowl commercial for CareerBuilder.com. In 2010, he directed the feature-length CG adaptation of "The Little Engine That Could," for Universal, with a screenplay by David Koepp ("Jurassic Park," "Spider-Man," "War of the Worlds") and starring the voices of Whoopi Goldberg, Jamie Lee Curtis, Jodi Benson and Alyson Stoner. In 2011, he directed the pilot episode for "Miles Across the Sea", a CG animated series for PBS. Currently, he is happy to be back at DisneyToon Studios directing feature films with executive producer John Lasseter. Download Resume
