In the 1970s, during his time at a university, he worked at a PBS station in Atlanta, Georgia, and later spent a year working with Tela Moving Images, a production company in Springfield, Massachusetts.[2] During his time with the production company, he used a Moviola to edit a documentary film about a trip to Kenya, Africa that he went on with a group of aspiring astronomers.

In the late 1980s, Schoenbrun acted as an assistant editor on the films Mystic Pizza and UHF. After directing several direct-to-video films in the 2000s, Schoenbrun and a producer wanted to make an adaptation of the comic book hero Spider-Man, starring a female protagonist.[3] In the summer of 2010, having instead chosen to create a parody film of the character the Hulk, Schoenbrun financed and directed the film The Amazing Bulk in Los Angeles, California.[3] He remained in Los Angeles to work on the film's post-production and to shoot the film Aliens vs. Avatars.
