"Jessica has produced, acted, and taken on assistant director duties with equal discipline and positive enthusiasm; she is largely responsible for the realities facilitating the making of my film. The example she sets as an entertainment professional is quickly acknowledged by people on the set with great certitude. She is focused, talented, and a balanced individual. Her presence has made me a better director, stronger communicator and often a better worker."
-Christian Elder, Director "PLAYdate"
"Not only does she have a great eye for detail, she’s also a creative visionary, steeped in discipline and dedication. She maintained her composure under pressure, and her problem solving skills are unmatched. Her expertise in preplanning helped ensure the actual days on set ran as smooth as possible, and she was instrumental in making our ambitious shooting schedule achievable. (They said it couldn’t be done.) She is an unstoppable success story in the making!"
(On Jessica as a Producer)
-Brad Bromelmeier, Director "Savor The Insanity"
"Jessica Mathews is a talent. She is wonderful to collaborate with, and is a true artist. Her work ethic and ability are of very high standards. Collaborating with Jessica on my film BOHEMIAN SUNSET was a wonderful experience. Working with her as an actress was very easy because she just got it. She did her homework, and came to set ready for anything I threw at her. She has what most actors don’t: the heart and desire to achieve more."
-Robert Benavides, Jr, Director "Bohemian Sunset"
"Jessica has one of the finest, hardest working, professional dispositions I have ever seen, in the biz and otherwise. She is strongly disciplined, highly talented, efficiently organized with an obvious motivation, energy and striking beauty which make her uniquely unmatched in her field."
-Eric Raddatz, Director, "A Day to Love and Die"
"As a director, it is a rare occasion to find a talent quite as unique and reliable as Jessica. I would cast her in my future productions without hesitation."
-Esther Biggs, Director, "Dysfunctional One Acts"
" Jessica is very professional and has a great attitude towards the film industry. I found her to be very talented, with a wide range in her acting abilities. I would definitely use her again in future projects."
- Jason Bunch, Director "Coming Attractions"
I would highly recommend Jessica Mathews as an actress, a pure talent, an on-set inspiration, and a friend. Jessica was such a pleasure to work with, that I have done it several times, including her work on our feature film “Stealing God.”
-Dave Swuz, Director "Stealing God", "Kimberly"
***A special message for Jessica's friend, Rana Fisher who passed away on August 10, 2008. Rest in peace. You are missed and loved.
