Q&A After the Film with filmmakers, Kristian Fraga & guest Johnathan Jacobson
Jonathan Jacobson
Jonathan Jacobson grew up in the small town of Chester, CT, literally surrounded by movies, as his parents owned and operated a local video store. After exhausting the narrative possibilities that directing his friends with his camcorder allowed, he attended NYU's Tisch Film School. While a student he worked on Larry Clark's infamous feature Kids (1995) which led to production work on other NYC indies and music videos. He's been working in New York's film and television production industry ever since.
All the while he never stopped writing screenplays. In 2022 he sold his original spec screenplay, The Kill Room, and in May of 2022 it went into production starring Uma Thurman and Samuel L Jackson.
