Biography:
At the age of four, Jerry made his first skateboard and from there it was a fast ride. Little did his worried mother know that this obsession with sports and everything moving would lead him to moving pictures. The ride included a school with a slick and very progressive film production studio where he got his taste for cameras and storytelling. Instead of the classic route to higher learning he decided to jump into this production thing and found himself at various production companies before he landed at Lake Tahoe, where the snowboard scene was taking off.Jerry began attaching cameras to boards, helmets, skis, arms, hang gliders, anything to get the perfect shot. By the following year he was selling 40,000 copies of these Rockumentary- styled snowboard movies. This allowed him to travel to over twenty-five countries making these high adrenaline films. As Director/DP of many top selling snowboard and wakeboard films his footage was in high demand and used in commercials for Molson Ice, Cherry Coke, Mt. Dew Jeep just to name a few..
Jerry realized where his future laid, exploring the weird world of thirty-second movies. Since then his clients have included American Express, British Knights, Sol Beer, Nevada Bell, Hilton Hotels, MTV Sports, Salomon Snowboards, G-Shock Watches, Original Sin Snowboards, Porsche, ESPN & ESPN 2, ABC Sports and many more.Sports Action, Snowboarding, Snow Skiing, Moto-Cross, Skateboarding, BMX, anything that moves.
