Testimonials
“Working with Jeff makes the process of sharing my vision so much smoother.”
– Sam Kadi, Film Director/Producer
“Jeff Jantz is one of the most creative and innovative people I have ever met!”
-De’Janae Douglas, iCare Detroit
“Jeff’s brain and hands are always working. In our many years of collaboration I’ve seen him design and build sets, fashion full-body monster costumes, craft original puppets, and publish two children’s books to boot. If you need a human Swiss-Army knife Jeff should be on your shortlist.”
