I had the pleasure of working with Josiah on Clint Eastwood's "Hereafter". We called upon his skills in the last 3

weeks of the project to help composite extremely complex shots that required a very rare skill set. He has an

excellent understanding of color and the ability to work independently to solve some of the hardest tasks ever

imposed upon a compositor. That of integrating live action plate photography with complex CG water

environment and pull it off perfectly. I highly recommend Josiah for any kick ass project you have in mind.

Josiah came in off a recommendation and what a good one it was. It was an absolute pleasure to work with

him. He delivered high quality work and his attitude was always jovial and positive. He did several shots that

were a giant pain in the ass and he nailed them. My only regret is that we did not have work immediately after

the current show to keep him on. I definitely look forward to the next time we can work together.

Robert Nederhorst, VFX Supervisor, Svengali FX

Josiah came in at the very end of Alice in Wonderland to help push out the last shots. He picked up our

software very quickly and delivered a couple of beautiful finals. I wish I'd had him on the show earlier and look

forward to working with him again in the future.
