The machine
room

The image is a system. Every body, every piece of glass and every rig below is owned, tested and tuned — not rented blind two days before the shoot.

What
I shoot

Music videos

High-speed phantoms, anamorphic flares and in-camera effects, built around the track's BPM. The cut is planned before the camera rolls.

Commercials

Product-perfect lighting, motion control and probe-lens macro for 6 to 60 second spots that survive every aspect ratio.

Documentary

Available-light systems and silent one-person rigs that disappear into the room — technical discipline in service of the real.

Behind
the lens

I'm Jonas — a cinematographer who treats every frame as an engineering problem. Twelve years across music videos, commercials and documentary taught me that the boldest image is usually the most precisely planned one.

I build my own rigs, write my own LUTs and pre-vis every set-up, so on set we spend our time on performance — not on troubleshooting.
