About

Hi, I’m Jonah Brainard, a post-production supervisor and creative lead with a passion for shaping stories through editing, motion graphics, and on-set collaboration. I’ve led editing for documentary projects, mentored 10+ interns, and produced content for academic and community partners, keeping a friendly, collaborative approach at the core of every project.

Beyond the Noise and other campus projects have sharpened my ability to manage deadlines, coordinate teams, and craft engaging promos. I’m excited to bring my hands-on production mindset to new challenges in film, media, and content creation, always aiming for high-quality results and clear communication with clients and colleagues.

Beyond The Noise takes you deep into Costa Rica’s Osa Peninsula, home to 2.5% of the world’s biodiversity, at the Tamandua Biological Station, a hub for pioneering conservation research. Follow the Kashmir World Foundation (KwF) team of interns, citizen scientists, and experts as they explore the cutting-edge world of bioacoustics and artificial intelligence to decode the language of sentinel species—nature’s early warning system.

This groundbreaking expedition is the first to use correlated datasets to train AI in the heart of a primary rainforest. By listening to howler monkeys, kinkajous, and other sentinel species, KwF demonstrates how technology can bridge the gap between humans and wildlife, helping protect endangered species and their habitats.
