Available to hire
Hi, I’m Jason Barry, a detail-oriented visual annotator and creative media professional with a background in digital animation, photo restoration, and storyboard/scene analysis. I thrive at breaking down images and short video into precise attributes (subjects, actions, mood, environment, camera cues) and I combine cinematic storytelling with solid documentation discipline from my security and customer service roles. I am reliable, a fast learner, and comfortable working remotely on deadline-driven projects. I adapt quickly to new tools and workflows, maintain high quality, and communicate clearly with clients to ensure expectations are met.
