Welcome,
We partner with brands to develop intentional visual strategies and execute them with clarity from concept through delivery. Every creative decision is made with purpose, resulting in content that aligns with creative visual goals and aims to perform across platforms.
Ponton is hoping to preserve the excitement for the kind of art that makes people pause in novelty. Ponton will work to make people feel the same way as being hypnotized watching embers of a campfire going out, or the collective understanding of people at the end of a pier to whisper when the sun’s setting. Ponton was created to feed the 2:00AM creatives.
Whether supporting productions broadly or stepping into focused roles, I work with care and intention. From focus pulling and operating to producing, directing, or content strategy, every technical and creative choice will serve the final product and the brand’s values.
I am always taking feedback. Send me a note, an email, a letter, a comment with thoughts. I’ll do my best to respond timely.
On screens: We’re all struggling with screens. Under-appreciating the real world is too common. Nature, people, fresh air, can do us all some good. Touch grass, take a break when you can.
Thank you for taking your time to explore Ponton’s website.
Ponton supports humanity and treating people with love and compassion.
Upcoming news for Ponton is looking to sell some merch in 2026, as well as unveil an original character to be placed as Ponton’s mascot. There are also two live action projects in the development stage and one documentary project.
I’d like to have a newsletter, but my bandwidth is just getting the ball rolling. It will be on the horizon.

Hello,
My name’s Dylan, the owner of Ponton. Originally from Genoa Nevada, next to Lake Tahoe, where I gained an appreciation for nature and started taking with landscape photography.
I’m working currently as a 1st AC, camera operator and director in Los Angeles. I’m aiming to develop more projects in lead roles from producing, directing, and writing throughout 2026 and work travel jobs.
Recently, Ponton’s taken on projects such as the “Addition Skin” web campaign, “Other Chef’s Cooking”, & “G2 Golden Era” (Music Video) while I’ve been able to work on such dynamic and amazing teams being in key roles.
I enjoy the outdoors, traveling and a good trinket. I love long lens filmmaking, and a-symmetrical composition motivated by light whether natural or manufactured.
Thank you for checking out the page and I’d love to work with you.
Best Regards,
Dylan
I support the LA community and the people that make it. Everyone is important, everyone should feel safe and taken care of. The world should hold no place for cruelty and unjust treatment of humans. Stay compassionate and help each other out.
