Jon Yeo has won numerous awards for his work in commercials including three Broadcast Design Awards, four Promax Awards and two BDA World Awards. Most recently he was involved in Sky's biggest ever re-brand, directing idents featuring 'Lost's' Naveen Andrews and 'Bones'' David Boreanaz.

We are delighted that Harald and Jon are joining our roster of award winning directors."
