Joe's love for cinema began in his teens as an usher in a Chicago movie house where he would sneak his friends only into those movies that he considered were good movies (apologies to General Cinema Corporation).

An award-winning author of fiction and non-fiction stories and articles and a popular public speaker, Joe credits his Irish roots for his love of story-telling and being able to embellish a tale with funny details, poignant circumstances, and memorable characters.

He enjoyed a brief stint as a Production Assistant and Extra in Hollywood before returning to the midwest producing award-winning digital shorts and writing screenplays with Joe.

With experience splicing film, building a stop-motion module from a bucket of electronics parts, and rigging a model car with pyrotechnics, Jason has developed an allure for all facets of story crafting including writing, logo design, storyboard illustration, camera operation, music-making, motion graphics, and building props.
