Jonathan Kemp was raised in Kingston upon Hull, East Yorkshire. He now lives in Lancashire. He spent his early years dreaming about making films (inspired by seeing 'Jurassic Park' seven times at the cinema), his teens and early twenties making music and is now making films.
Jonathan is interested in the positive power of filmmaking.
