I worked with Jonathan at IMG Media for over 15 years, mostly on their weekly magazine programme, Trans World Sport, a one-hour show that was shown on Channel 4 and Sky Sports in the UK and distributed to over 50 countries worldwide. I can thoroughly recommend Jonathan. He is hugely experienced, extremely creative and can be consistently relied upon to produce work of the highest quality. Any production would benefit from having him onboard. More...

Jonathan has edited a variety of different projects with me - from sizzle reels in the development stage, to fast-turnaround digital series (Olympic Channel’s Anatomy Of), to more nuanced documentary shorts for broadcast on topics such as mental health. For the latter, the pacing of the cut is essential to eliciting the right emotions at the right times - which is something Jonathan is great at. He’s not a button pusher; he feels the story. Jonathan never lets a project leave his edit until it is well polished from both an editorial and technical standout. He is extremely collaborative but equally able to crack on solo from his home setup. Jonathan uses a variety of editing software too, so you know you can call on him for different client needs. Above all, he’s just a decent guy - and we all like working with nice people More...

Video Editing

Working with Jonathan has been an absolutely fantastic experience. I needed someone who understood the technical side of post-production while also caring about the heart and vision behind my film, and Jonathan delivered both brilliantly. His knowledge of DaVinci Resolve and industry standards is outstanding, and his patience, communication, and genuine investment in the project made the whole process feel collaborative and supportive.

He listened carefully to my ideas, respected my creative direction, and at the same time offered thoughtful guidance when I was overthinking decisions. His experience helped shape the film in ways I hadn’t imagined, always raising the quality while staying true to my original vision. I never felt like just another client—he treated the film with real care and attention.

Thanks to Jonathan, EON is prepared to a professional level for grading, sound, and festival submission, and the final result is far beyond what I thought possible. I would recommend him without hesitation.
