Jayson Johnson

Jayson earned an MA in film production from Eastern Illinois University and then took a by chance interview which led him to work for legendary film director Francis Ford Coppola. Four years many successful wine and food projects later, Jayson took Coppola’s advice to ‘go out and become famous’ by trying his hat as an independent film producer. Since that piece of advice, Jayson has gone on to write, direct and produce award-winning content for Discovery Networks, ABC and Amazon, Netflix and several other top brand companies. Jayson currently works full time as a writer/director/producer for Strike Five Films.
