Welcome

to my portfolio.

My name is Jacob Hynson. I am a young filmmaker from Wellington, New Zealand. My goal is to become a film director, to tell incredible stories that are immersive, entertaining, and share meaningful messages.

About Me

I've loved movies ever since I was a kid. At the age of eight, I was making YouTube videos, primarily gaming, which then became short skits during my primary school years. Going into college, I took Media Studies every year and made films, both inside and outside of school. I knew from a very young age that film is what I wanted to do, and it has stuck with me to this day. I believe in the power of storytelling and creativity, and I believe that I have a unique skill set that allows me to reach seemingly outside of my range.

​

I'm experienced in cinematography, editing, color grading, visual effects, 3D modeling with basic understanding of animation, music theory and composition for soundtracks, all of which I am mostly self-trained, with parts of my knowledge coming from college and film school - Although, I already knew a lot going into these.
