James was a rather visible crewmember every day on the set of The Pallid Mask. Recognizable as the guy with the big spiral notebook, he was constantly coercing cast members to pose for endless mug shots and suggesting retakes when actors had difficulty with some of the rather impossible dialogue.

The Pallid Mask was his first film production, having previously focused most of his creative energies on writing. James is approaching the completion of his third original feature length screenplay, and has four more in various stages of development.

In the summer of 2004, he wrote for the stage sketch show This Ain’t Shakespeare, which was performed in Titusville. Currently he can be found working as script supervisor on Mike McShane’s The Votive Pit.
