FILMS

As an avid filmmaker, I have an unquenchable thirst to create & share stories. My debut short film, 'Getaway,' premiered at The Yonkers Film Festival in 2018 and was accepted & screened at nearly half-a-dozen film festivals worldwide garnering several awards. My latest film/pilot episode, 'I Want You Baby,' is currently out for submission to festivals and hopefully will become a full-fledge series revolving around online dating in New York City. I'm constantly developing projects and always looking for passionate filmmakers to work alongside.

'GETAWAY'

Short Film - 2018

James is the the creator, producer, writer, and star behind the short film, 'Getaway,' a psychological ghost thriller set up in the Canadian woods. Late in the summer of 2017, James led a cast & crew of 20 people to shoot a film up in Lake Muskoka, Canada. It was a passion project of his that was several years and two countries in the making. He was fortunate enough to gain the support of hundreds of people both in New York, Canada, and elsewhere to help make this film a reality. It's now out for submission to film festivals around the world.
