Jonathan Nellis claims he has directed music videos with all kinds of different music artist such as Chris Brown, Lil Wayne, Usher so on, when in reality he has never produced any of the main stream artists music videos. He steals credit for videos or movies that he has never worked with or for. He makes everyone think he is some big time producer when he is not. He uses false advertising and other people's work or credits to make himself look good. Don't fall for this guy to do your music videos or any production he claims to help you with. He will only screw you over.

False Accusations, Legitimate Undeniable Proof w/ References that I, Jonathan Nellis am a real Music Video Director and Producer

#2REBUTTAL Individual responds

Hello,

This is Jonathan Nellis. These accusations of me being a fraud music video director is completely false. This ripoffreport is made by an individual with malicious intent. I have never claimed I have worked with artist Chris Brown, Lil Wayne, or Usher. I would never claim such things because, for one, it would be shooting my career down immediately. Everyone in the Music Video film industry are all friends, fellow directors, fellow producers, and we all know which director/producer shot which artist's music video. When one fellow director comes out with a new music video, we all respect each other and commend each other on their work. I build continuous relationships with all the artist I work with. Hence why you see me direct or produce more than one for the same artist. I can provide many legitimate references with artist and other production companies I have worked with that can attest to my involvement in each one of my projects.

Several things to point out to show these are false ripoffreports.

1. Numerous reports made only minutes within each other.

2. Numerous reports are copy and pasted w/ same speech habits. Same wrtier.

3. The poster is anonymous.

Proof I am a legitimate director/producer. All my projects I have worked on have my named embedded right into the video itself. All these videos are posted from the Artist's page and not mine. The artist wouldn't post it if I wasn't the director/producer. Plus I have Behind the Scenes video with the artist and I together as he introduces me to the camera. Here are few examples of many.

Mario
Mario is a mainstream R&B singer that I produced his music video "Ladies First" It isn't out yet. This video was recorded with my cell at the end of the shoot and Mario is thanking everyone. You can clearly see in the video at 0:29 Mario looks at me, and says thanks you and clearly saying out loud point right at me "Jonathan". At the end of the video you can see me completely. I turned the camera around on me after. The co-producers, Mario's manager, Mario, and the Production Designer can testify that I was producer on this project. Here is the link to the video.
