From psychology student to storyteller, Jason Johnston reveals how his background in psychological analysis became the foundation for his unique approach to visual composition. His recent work on the Western film "Killing Jimmy Kelly" becomes a case study as he unpacks the delicate balance between technical constraints and creative vision, while shooting in the punishing Texas heat with limited equipment.


His career philosophy echoes in his parting wisdom: "Don't be afraid to challenge yourself and go beyond what other people are probably expecting you to do and then surprise them."
