“When I first met Jop, all of nineteen but the wise of ninety, the connection between us was quick-fire. We bonded over film, life and everything in between. Required Reading was my first short. Just when the script was finishing, they came in, took the film and held it very close to their heart - until the very last second. From pre-production in recce, storyboarding, rehearsals, to shooting, and further on to post-production in editing, grading, they carried the film on their shoulders. What with a meagre budget on our hands, they never compromised on quality and always went the extra mile to get what we both wanted. The film breathes and lives, thanks to them. I just wish and hope we will always make films together. In them, I found a collaborator, a fellow dreamer and a friend for life.”

“Working with Jop is always a truly inspiring journey. Their unstoppable drive, great attention to detail, and above all, their great personality is something special. It's a blast to work with such a talented creative spirit and to have gained a true friend.”
Mo Assem (Mr.Beam)
“Jop en I never met in real life before, but I never had second thoughts to work with them. Their work looked amazing and the way they communicate felt just right. The first project we did together was a long shooting day where we were making 3 live videos of my new songs. The moment we shook hands, I felt my intuition was right. Jop is a very relaxed and calming person, which is very nice on a long day on the set. They work professionally, communicate well and have an incredible talent for colours, composition and catching the right feeling I wanted to create.”

“Jop is one of the hardest workers I have met. From start to finish they are super-focused and tirelessly dedicated to the project. At the same time they come up with creative solutions and unique perspectives to any challenge. This makes working with them an absolute pleasure.”
Martijn Engels (Color Bones)
“Jop’s vision is unique: it is tangible in the shots and elevated my ideas to the next level. I would trust them with any project. Their presence on set made everyone more comfortable and confident. Their style is both relaxed and focused, with tremendous commitment from start to finish.”

“Working with Jop was a stroll in the park. When we reached out to them asking if they could help us recreate the video “Bury a Friend” by Billie Eilish, we were worried we'd be asking too much. However, not only was Jop on board 100% with the idea from the get-go, but they also knew exactly what to do at any given time during the process. Calm, confident, and always in control. But even though we put everything in Jop's hands, it never stopped feeling like a co-production. Jop takes charge without taking over, professional yet pleasant. The results speak for themselves. We can't wait to work with them on our next video!”
Abel Jansma (Eilie Billish)
“I had the pleasure of working with them for my first music video. The video they created was stunning and exceeded my expectations. What impressed me the most was their ability to work wonders even with tight budgets, demonstrating their resourcefulness and creativity. Furthermore, Jop’s patience throughout the process made working with them a breeze. Jop is a true professional who delivers exceptional video production and editing services.”
Neon Noire
“To me, Jop’s most important skill, besides their apparent technical and artistic qualities, is their quest - already at this young age - for realness and sincerity in their creations. This is where their art arises from.”
