  3. I had the pleasure of working with Jason on a number of productions and always admired his skill and creativity. But more so the gentle softness he brought into the days as we worked on whichever project or sudden deadline we had. He had a personality and presence that just sticks with you. My deep condolences go to his family, close friends, the Melbourne Art crew and all those feeling the deep loss of his lovely soul. Rest easy Jason x

  6. Jase was one of those rare people whose presence made life brighter. He was endlessly talented and creative, with a unique, clever wit and playful spirit. I am so very grateful to have shared so many film jobs with him as his work partner, but most importantly, to have had him as a truly wonderful friend. Jase will forever be missed. My love and condolences to his family and friends.

  21. Jason was a super honey of a man and I loved chatting with him. He was so multi talented, I think I learned he had a different arty skill every time we spoke. He was admired and adored by everyone he met. Truly. Big love to his family, Andrew and all the arty folk who he touched with his kindness, humour, cheekiness and good vibe. He is hugely missed.
