  • Jon is an extraordinary artist. He has always been precise and proactive when working on his tasks and finding good and creative solutions for everyday challenges. In numerous cinematics projects, he developed stunning master setups for lighting and compositing, which were used by other artists. If someone asks me who I want to have in my team on a project, I say, "Jon is mandatory!".

  • Being a great artist is one thing, but being (crazy) passionate about this industry is even more important. I can assure you that Jon possesses both of those traits. If you have his passion and listen to what he says, you'll be in good hands, and he'll guide you toward achieving your goals.
