  1. Jordu is the Muhammed Ali of creating and sculpting creatures, not only is he a genius at what he does but he’s also hilarious and witty!

  2. I had the chance to meet him once, at Maskfest. Jordu is as funny in person as he was on Making Monsters. Cool guy!

  3. e il mio sogno fare questo lavoro, ma purtroppo in italia non e possibile fare questo come in america

  4. Literally took his favorite thing to do in his life and figured out exactly how to do that at the highest level so it’s his profession.

  5. I have been a special effects makeup artist for almost 40 years now, yet I sit spellbound watching this genius, who I a proud to call a colleague. A very nice guy too.
