Jordan was fascinated by how well the story was told, and the fact that the film did not have an antagonist.

“Everyone in the film just had their own agenda,” he says.

This film created a desire in him to be a story teller. He developed an interest in animation, and eventually joined the film industry.

Today, Jordan has credits in eight Malaysian films as a visual effects supervisor, and is the cofounder and creative director of the production house Studio Voxel.

His 2009 short film Rojak! was officially selected for over 10 international film festivals, including the Busan International Film Festival, and the Clermont Ferrand Short Film Festival in France.

Despite his years of experience, Jordan took his time before trying his hand at directing a feature film.

He explains: “I am the kind of person who likes to wait and gain knowledge before I sit in the director’s chair.”

Jordan also has his eye on making a name for himself in the international scene.

Last year, he worked as a visual effects supervisor for the straight-to-DVD Hollywood disaster movie Destruction Los Angeles.

“I had to stay in Los Angeles for two months to complete the film,” Jordan recalls.

During that period, he interacted with others who had plenty of experience working behind the camera in Hollywood, which helped him improve his own skills.

Jordan also revealed that he is in negotiations with a Hollywood production company, to produce another film.
