About Jonathan

Filmmaker, artist, voice actor: I cover all the bases and explore them equally.
Originally from Michigan, where I began my foray into film and animation, I have now lived in Georgia for almost 10 years, 6 of which were spent in Savannah, getting my Bachelors Degree in Film & Television Production from the Savannah College of Art & Design.

Over the course of my life, I have pushed myself to explore multiple skills and art-forms including Digital Illustration, 3D-modeling, sculpture, stage acting, voice over, and singing. These additional skills have made it progressively easier to pursue my various film and animation projects, and were invaluable to the creation of my last short film, "Bill & Maggie's Intergalactic Taxi Service;" which combined everything I love about film, cartoons, fantasy, and sci-fi.

I have a passion for creativity, which, as of this writing, is rising back up to a new, incredibly prolific peak. I'm currently designing and developing multiple original characters, producing concept art for my next film, and am making plans to get myself out there for professional voice-over roles. Despite us all being sheltered inside our homes, staying safe as possible from COVID-19, 2020 is sure to be a very active year for me.

Simply put, I am not a one-vocation kind of guy. My imagination has no limits, so I have never put any limits on myself or my creativity. If you're ever in need of someone who can think broad and think outside the box, I'd be glad to bounce ideas with you.

Unique traits: A very expressive, rubbery face. Distinctive cartoon-like smile.
