Jon Mitchell

Head of Environments at Distillery VFX

Originally from Halifax, Jon moved to the west coast of Canada in 2008 to continue his career in visual effects, moving from freelance for commercials and music videos to feature film work.

With over a decade of experience in feature films, Jon has worked on over 25 movies, including notable franchises: Star Wars, Jurassic World, and the Marvel Cinematic Universe. He specializes in generalist workflows, from creating high end digital environments to rigid body FX simulations.

A Frantic Films and ScanlineVFX alum, Jon joined Industrial Light + Magic in 2014 as a Generalist Artist and has spent the past four years as a Generalist Supervisor for ILM’s environment team.
