Dynamic, driven, dedicated describe Trevor Johnson who joined TVJ in 1998 as production manager. As TVJ’s local programmes portfolio grew, Mr. Johnson’s portfolio was changed to production manager, outside broadcast. Mr. Johnson’s television career started as a cameraman with Jamaica Information Service (JIS), later joining local production company, Mediamix, as a videographer. He was soon promoted to senior editor then technical services manager. His Mediamix productions include popular local drama series, Royal Palm Estate. Mr. Johnson also worked as project manager on USA based BET series, Soul by the Sea.
Â
Soon after joining TVJ, Mr. Johnson made his mark as a member of the team that transitioned the station from unprofitability to profitability. His focus is on managing teams, procedures and systems that consistently deliver content with high quality production values that are indistinguishable from first world looks that are achieved with significantly greater levels of investments.

Mr. Johnson’s passion is to transform ideas into the magic and realities that viewers watch on television. TVJ programmes that reflect this approach include Digicel Rising Stars, Entertainment Report, and Intense, each of which is characterized by world class production values. “You’re never too old to learn something new” is an often repeated Trevor Johnson mantra which he practices as part of relentless research that he undertakes on video and audio equipment and trends. There’s no stopping this dedicated professional, he is a true team leader and an inspiration to persons with whom he interacts.
