About

 Jonathan is a cinematographer, with a strong visual style and unique eye. He strives to immerse his audience in the frame he shoots through context and aesthetics, be it for commercials, documentary or branded content.

With his technical knowledge of camera, lights and editing , he considers himself a film “all rounder”.

His work does not stop at being “behind the camera”. He has spearheaded the growth of the visual language in South Africa’s mobile generation.

In 2009, he won the Highway Africa New Media awards, for his work on the hyperlocal content and news platform, 790tv.co.za.

He has gone on to train over 300 Video and Citizen Journalists through his Vertical Film Academy.

As a production service, the company has been pushing the boundaries of using new technologies to meet the growing demand for new ways to service clients and their creative needs.
