Jos Villegas

A Creative and Marketing Executive who has over 15 years of experience on a diverse slate of feature film at major studios, Universal Pictures, 20th Century Fox, and IMAX.

I have a deep understanding of what makes a story both compelling and marketable. A seasoned executive specialising in international, I developed marketing strategies, creative advertising materials (trailers, posters, outdoor, AV spots), campaigns, and filmmaker presentations across all genres. I've worked on popular blockbuster franchises such as Minions and X-Men (including Deadpool and Logan) as well as critically acclaimed films like The Revenant, Bohemian Rhapsody, The Greatest Showman and House of Gucci. My experience also extends to action (Kingsman films), sci-fi (Planet of the Apes franchise), comedy (The Heat, Spy), drama (Life of Pi, Fault in Our Stars, The Martian, Respect), horror/thriller (Alien: Covenant, Prometheus), and young adult (Maze Runner and Percy Jackson franchises).

As part of UCLA’s Development Program, I'm building on my marketing experience to deepen my understanding of development and production.

Having worked extensively with agencies and diverse teams, I bring a collaborative approach offering clear, actionable insights. By staying current with industry trends and understanding the nuances of different genres with a global perspective, I will also provide relevant and valuable feedback that elevates each project to help excite audiences worldwide.
