Because of this personal mandate, he has developed a reputation of creating bold visuals, interlaced with thought provoking story.
Jonathan is currently developing a socially charged dance experimental film entitled, "We are THE BEAT." (Ask for pitch deck/script)

Joey has driven straight across America three times, and is learning to enjoy "sports" for the first time in her life. Otherwise, she is developing projects through Silverox Pictures, which she shares with her DP and partner in all things T.J. Williams, Jr. She is represented by WME|IMG, Good Fear Film + Management, and Stone, Genow, Smelkinson, Binder & Christopher, LLP.
