Background

About Jonathon Stanton

As a storyteller, I strive to tap our immutable core. I live to create timeless stories of hope & renewal for a diverse global audience; exploring the depths of human experience & the balance of technology. I'm excited to contribute to the art of storytelling in the new frontier of virtual reality & augmented reality as they re-code civilization. Passion has led me around the world, meeting people from all walks of life. Our common archetypes are mirrored through our collective values, desires, dreams, emotions, struggles & suffering we share. Our industry can always do better to create stories for diverse audiences while exploring meaningful issues, affect positive change & satisfy our insatiable appetite; as great stories do. entertain the mind & nourish the soul. A restless curiosity has driven me to learn the evolving mechanics & nuances of screen-based motion picture mediums (development, pre-production, production, post-production & distribution) on goliath-budget union & ultra-low budget indie films since I have tremendous respect for the artist/technicians who's sacrifice brings every project to life; their dedication is unmatched in any industry. The more I learn, the more I'm brought back to my youthful passion for crafting story worlds. These industrial arts are equal measure artistic vision & business structure. Throughout my life, I've thrown myself into opportunities for developing as a human being, entrepreneur & artist. My diversity of world experience sharpens my focus & vision; informing efficient decision making throughout the immense process of creating a film project. Filmmaking is simply the coolest thing that gets me fired up & out of bed each morning :)
