2020 REEL

Shot and edited by Django G-S

I’ve been fortunate enough to work alongside Django on a variety of projects for the last decade. On every occasion, he is consistently thoughtful, both to the outcome of what we are filming, but also to the crew working with him. Not once have I ever felt out of the loop or unsure of what our common purpose was on a set or location. His communication in this regard is outstanding. But even better in my opinion is his willingness to listen and incorporate feedback without missing a beat. Simply put, he brings clarity to a project and manages a team seemingly without effort. After so many pleasant experiences working on a crew for him, I don’t hesitate when asked.

Mello for Mayor

Shot and edited by Django G-S and Kelly Herrington

It was clear coming into our first meeting that Django had already put considerable thought into what the project could look like, while being conscientious of the campaign’s goals. I was consistently impressed by Django’s patience and gentle tenacity in moving production forward. He provided regular and concise progress updates, as well as clear steps forward. And the final project? We were all gobsmacked by the film’s magic. It captured Mello’s vision, drive and inspiration for Omaha.

How Positive Train Control Works

Producer: Django G-S
Animator: Dan Dawley, Swell TV

Django has been an invaluable part of multiple productions we’ve created for the Union Pacific brand. Developing technical animations can be a difficult task to clearly communicate from concept-to-completion, and I believe that his guidance was a huge reason for our success. Most importantly, Django possesses an uncanny ability to bridge the gap between creative-speak and corporate-speak, balancing multiple points of view simultaneously while allowing for projects to continue on track without losing vital details. I’m extremely happy with the work we’ve been able to create while working together.

When Django talked to us about this article, it felt like we were just having a casual chat rather than an interview. The article he wrote was powerful and our whole team was very proud of the way he captured the story. He is an excellent writer. Django also spent time teaching me about video creation so my team could produce short videos on a budget. Django is passionate about his work and goes the extra mile.
