People
Ultimately, when you choose a company you are choosing people. We are very proud of the staff and extended contractor family of eMo. They have been through many years of training and have seen it all. They are great people, and easy to get along with (though they are kind of snobby about food). Over time we hope you'll get to know them.

Glen Janssens
Director/Partner

Glen is a creative strategic thinker with a healthy dose of business experience and expertise – perhaps more from co-founding and running eMotion studios than from his MBA from Michigan. During the past 14 years, Glen has directed projects for clients like NASA, Adobe, TED conferences and the Experience Music Project. When not behind a camera, Glen can often be found in Mt. Shasta, with his daughter whose love for animals – a horse, 8 Nubian goats, 7 chickens, three cats and a dog – has necessitated an addition to the barn. And he's a crazy about back-country snowboarding…

Video Editor

Julie has been freelance editing for 13 years, but ever since she started doing work for eMotion studios, she has been hovering around acting like staff, so we just feed her and let her stay. She enjoys editing, editing, and editing. Just give her something to edit and she is happy. She almost became a lawyer. For some reason people call her "Crackletops".
