Jorik Dozy

Studio Birthplace

After working in Hollywood for over a decade on the biggest blockbusters in the world, Jorik realized he had to switch direction: it's time to stand up for our planet, nature and those without a voice.

He left Hollywood behind, moved to Southeast Asia and started telling stories of our planet under threat. He is driven to create a new kind of entertainment, a kind that not only educates but drives change for a better world.
