About FilmmakerJ

Hey there! I'm Jon.

I'm a voice actor with a degree in Film Production and a hobby for Illustration. An odd combo, but it allows me to do a lot of creative things.


I've dedicated the past 10 years to practicing my acting skills, starting out with impersonations of characters on Youtube, and recently expanding into my own short scripts and original voices. I consider my range broad and expressive, but not too extreme. I focus heavily on aged voices or voices with a lot of texture, which I think sells the the audience on the stranger performances.


My personal muse is the late great Paul Frees. With decades of radio work, narration, and many memorable characters from Disney to Rankin/Bass, no one but Frank Welker even comes close to matching his extensive resume. And since my voice sits at about the same range as Paul's did, I have always aspired to land similar roles, including ones similar to his most famous, Prof. Ludwig Von Drake.


For those looking to cast members of the LGBTQ community, I came out as bisexual and later pansexual in mid-2017. And I'm coming up on my 3rd year anniversary with my partner, Zack.


If you like what I've done so far, I promise you won't be disappointed with what I can do for your project. My goal is to always go above and beyond what people expect, especially for my directors.

What FilmmakerJ is looking for

I'm looking for major or minor roles as villains, antagonists, wacky supporting characters, or steadfast companions. If you think I'd sound great for a leading role, I'm always open to those as well.

    Jon is a talented and versatile voice actor with a wide range and great acting mastery, from spunky heroes to intimidating villains. FilmJ is also a visual artist and a movie director and such experience in many creative fields is a big bonus! I highly recommend him for your projects.

    FilmmakerJ (Jonathan Leiter) is very dedicated when it comes to his work. He worked with me on a project of mine as one of the major roles, and despite any obstacles that came along during production, Leiter managed to overcome them quite easily. I really enjoyed listening to his lines whenever he turned them in due to the fact that he puts an effort into recording that is beyond average expectations. It is without doubt or uncertainty that I would recommend this hardworking, vocally flexible professional to work with anyone on their projects.

  • @radio-squidworks

    FilmmakerJ has been one of my favorite Voice Actors to work with!
    Professional, talented, and versatile he would be a great addition to any cast or project. They only thing I regret working with him is not utilizing his talent for larger roles.

    Thanks for all your efforts! I Hope to have the pleasure of working with you again.

    Another FANTASTIC job by FilmmakerJ!
    This was not my first time working with him and I hope it wont be my last. This time he played the role of Soos in my Gravity Falls audio drama project and was spot on brilliant. He's clearly a versatile and talented voice actor. I highly recommend this guy!

    Thanks again for another AMAZING performance!

    I provided voice work for FilmmakerJ on his DuckTales ReVoiced project and it was an amazing opportunity. Not only is he an great director but he also has a huge range of voices and is insanely talented. He also makes sure that if he starts a project he finishes it. The projects he has are also of very high quality. I look forward to working with him again in the future!

    Talented, passionate, professional, and hardworking; that's how I would describe FJ. I was VERY fortunate to work for FJ on a project of his; "DuckTales ReVoiced". The quality of work that he produced, directed, and acted in was superb! Additionally, his artistic talent blew me away! It isn't everyday that you come across such a creative and talented producer! The amount of detail he put into his work clearly shows his passion and love for what he does. These are rare qualities found on CCC. FJ's final production of "DuckTales ReVoiced" is clearly a testament that he is a cut above the rest.

    If you are looking for a fun and smooth director, look no further. Working with FilmmakerJ on his Ducktales project was an absolute joy, and I recommend any VA works with him. You'll come out on the other side with new skills you never knew you had, all thanks to him. I'd work with him again in a hearbeat.
