Testimonials

"I have been fortunate enough to work side by side with JM and his company Spectrum401 on multiple projects. He is a true professional who really knows his work. Best of all, he's also a genuine pleasure to work with and a great person to have as a collaborator. Whenever clients ask if I have a lighting company to recommend on a new project, Spectrum 401 is the first place I tell them to go. I trust his work, and I trust him to deliver an amazing design every time."

"JM and Spectrum401 have never let me down. In fact, the storytelling and emotion JM’s designs bring to any form of theatrical event has always exceeded expectations. Without fail, JM’s work is on time, in budget and is matched by his collaborative nature and ‘I’ll make that happen’ attitude. Oh yeah… it always stunning."

"When I need to assemble a first rate production team together, JM is always one of my first requests. JM always is at the top of his game by participating as a collaborative creative partner, thinking out of the box. His designs are incredible as JM is one of the few lighting artists we work with that can literally paint with light. When it comes to logistics such as timeline and budget, JM always finds a way to make the team's goals a reality. I cannot think of a better individual to have on my team or yours."

"I have been producing live theater for over 20 years. Finding a collaborative lighting designer who is able to walk the fine line of completely supporting the director’s vision, and the set designer’s reality, all while maintaining their own artistic vision is no small feat. To this, JM is the best I have ever worked with. His artistic eye is imaginative and vibrant, still he ultimately creates what is always best for the entirety of the piece and the narrative of the story. He is a pleasure to have on the team. I am grateful for all he has brought to the Garry Marshall Theatre since its inception in 2016. If his schedule fits with yours, hire him immediately. You will be glad you did."
