Meet Jaco
Jaco Nothnagel has been working in the industry long enough to say “back in my day…” more often than he should. Bringing stories to life by finding creative solutions within set parameters is what he loves doing most.
“I believe that if you create a space on set where each team member feels valued and respected, the creativity, passion and investment undoubtedly translates to the screen.”
Go2 Content was an idea born from the vision to approach a seemingly relentless industry in a more sustainable way. Yes, we take pride in what we do, but how we do it will always enjoy favour. We’ve been lucky to collaborate with some of the industry’s best in a very short period of time and intend on creating top quality content with like-minded people for as long as we can.
In 2023, our fourth and final 90min TV film debuted on kykNET in May. Go2 Content’s first feature film, Die tragiese saak van Pamina Vermaak, premiered at the kykNET Silwerskerm festival in August and will be released on Box Office in February 2024.
“It’s all about the story.”
Meet Lamees
Lamees played a vital part in the success story of the Fugard theatre, where she worked with Jaco in 2011 after graduating from UCT. In her time there, she produced way too many shows for us to mention here (West Side Story!!), but with her sheer determination and passion she has made an invaluable contribution to the theatre industry in the country.
Lamees is fascinated by the process and when Jaco called her one day in August 2020 to ask if she’d be crazy enough to Line Produce 10x TV films, it is no surprise that she said yes.
Since then, she has produced four music videos, eleven short films, thirteen episodes of a reality TV show, thirteen episodes of a studio game show and Line Produced four 90min films, of which she co-produced two. In her spare time she was also the content producer for more than seventy episodes of “Kassie Kuiers”, a weekly digital campaign with Renaldo Schwarp, commissioned by kykNET.
“Lamees is strong, kind, fair, incredibly smart and can do anything she puts her mind to. I couldn’t imagine doing any of this without her by my side”, says Jaco. Get a room you guys.
