Only Good Creative.





Bad Buddha has come to our video rescue numerous times — flawless editing, and elegantly suggesting a better edit than what I had in mind.
I’ve worked with many talented craftspeople, but none as gifted as Jacob — creative solutions, integrity, and calm under pressure.
Creative, organizational, and technical skill rarely seen in one person. My team is always stronger with Jacob on board.
Need the whole thing made? I direct and produce commercials, long format television, and documentaries, and bring in the exact crew your project calls for. You get a 25-year director running point, on set and then in the cut.
