About / CV
Hello, I’m Jon.
Let’s make some cool stuff together.
As a post-production veteran with 15+ years of experience, I’ve cut Call of Duty broadcast trailers, created awards show graphics packages/live event visuals for AIAS, Indie Game Awards, Dell, and Oracle, and designed logos/brand ID for startups and small businesses.
My sweet spot is tasteful, detail-oriented design, 2D animation, and editorial storytelling. I’m as comfortable talking narrative and big picture strategy as I am diving into keyframes, massaging beziers, or getting that one stubborn edit just right.
I have a black cat named Bernard who fetches bottlecaps and I like to hike, cook, and read books about how our brains work.
LA-based, available for remote.
