SØD
A "The Junker" MELØN
Founder, Executive Director of Animation, Lead Character Designer, Director of Team Management Host, JSMD Personality, Storyboard Artist, Spearhead Game Developer, Vision Director, RRFN/JSMDFN Prime Coordinator, Performance Artist
Having built JSMDPro on a fairly successful freelance/contracting career, Søda Meløn has a deep well of knowledge in art and design, thankfully supplementing his extremely blunt and eccentric personality. While his projects are perhaps the most involved projects on JSMDPro's resume, the inner workings of JSMDPro's business side is also a construct of his own design. He has been in the art world professionally for 16 years.
It can naturally be inferred that he has involvement with most if not all JSMDPro projects. Though primarily a visual artist and historian of animation and studio production, he also has a collected history audio design, mixing, engineering, and composing stretching 24 years and counting. He is a triple-threat of bombastic and versatile animation, technical and conceptual illustration, and live or processed audio skills.
TwoStep
Head Director of Cinematography, Head of Animated Visual FX, Lead Photographer, JSMDPro Personality, Choreographer, Lead Editor (Film), Photography and Live-Action Department COO , RRFN/JSMDFN Co-Coordinator
With a refined eye for composition and lighting rarely seen since the 80s, TwoStep ushers in a new era of looking "Classic", without seeming dated or antiquated. His energy and background are a
key elements in both his work, and his impeccable work ethic. The baroque style of dramatic lighting and Punch-in-the-Face action that comes across in TwoStep's work comes straight from his personal love of Metal, Action flicks, and Martial Arts. Speaking of, he's also a trained mixed martial artist and an avid parkour tricker!
