How Filmmaker Jon Schwartz Went From Skate Parks to Big Brand Commercials.

Jon Schwartz is a dynamic filmmaker with a knack for technical precision, blending creativity with collaboration. His work reflects a deep respect for the filmmaking process, emphasizing the importance of teamwork and adaptability. His dream project is a fingerboarding,  specifically a tech deck commercial using motion control, probe lenses, and cloning techniques to create an "insane" and highly creative commercial.

My cult classic mockumentary, "Dill Scallion" is online so I'm giving 100% of the money to St. Jude Children's Hospital. I've decided to donate the LIFETIME earnings every December, so the donation will grow and grow annually. Thank you.
