Colleagues describe him as "Jason Heaton is the ideal director. Being a show runner on Go! Go! Cory Carson for the last two years, I’ve enjoyed worked closely with Jason. Jason makes work fun. As a series director for the show, Jason was always thoughtful, passionate about his work, incredibly driven, and came consistently with great ideas. Jason is a renaissance man, a problem solver, full of energy and enthusiasm, who is part writer, storyboard artist, director, and everything in between. He has a knack for finding entertainment. Even when it might feel lost to others, Jason will never give up on improving an idea and he always finds a way to make it better. He has a keen story sense for structure and a killer sense of humor. He knows how to clearly and effectively communicate and stage an idea. He is a willing and proactive collaborator, who knows that the best idea comes from gathering many different minds together and attacking a problem. When I think of what I would look for in a director, Jason checks all the boxes." and "Having co-directed and produced projects with Jason, I say with confidence that he's an exceptional director. He's the rare type of creative that considers all the constraints — budgets, timelines, talent — and works within them to achieve the best possible final outcome. He has a strong vision for every project and gives clear, direct feedback to everyone on the team. He takes care to make sure everyone feels heard, understands exactly what's expected of them, and feels proud of their work at the end of the project. I've never met anyone with such commitment and tenacity to create the highest quality work possible — all of the projects I'm most proud of involve Jason. If I could, I'd work with him on every project for the rest of my career."
