About

GreyLight Media’s Founder and Award-Winning Cinematographer

My name is Jon M. and though I’ve been working in this industry for the past 25 years, I’m new to the Bloomington area and want to bring a local, fresh option to those seeking videography work locally.

I began by filming and taking photos of ourselves skating at 7 years old, culminating that into my first production, a skate video that went on to sell in 12 countries. From there, I studied film production, photography and psychology at Columbia College. I went on to work in music videos, weddings, events and television production. I’ve had the pleasure of working with artists such as Twista, Timeflies, Young Jeezy, Cool Kids, Big Sean and others with producing and filming music videos. I’ve also done work as a photographer with Macklemore, RedMan, Lauryn Hill, Dessa, and DJ Abilities.

With these past 25 years, I’ve been blessed to win awards as Director of Photography on three separate occasions, two of which for television campaigns, as well as winning two separate film festival awards. I strive to bring my cliental the same level of care and quality that has proven itself time and time again, without the $50,000.⁰⁰ price tag.

I want to take your ideas and translate that into your videos, creating a visual representation that I can be proud of. I’m not personally satisfied with a project unless it’s something I want to show off.
