Name:

James

Location:

San Rafael, California, United States

Bio:

"James makes up for all the other shitty white people." - Paolo Sambrano

Yeah so this is where I've chosen to wrap up my life into digestible segments for all the people I love and like and even kind of know. I'm a grad from the University of Puget Sound trying to sack up experience in the field of film and TV production.

I've got some elitist tendencies, but when it comes down to it, I really enjoy spending time with all kinds of people. I'm all about nonstop barrages of pop culture references and collecting in-jokes with others. I love to swap movies, mix CDs, novelty music. I dig people who invent new slang every week, aren't easily offended, willing to try something new, and who laugh easily, sometimes without knowing why. I'll probably end up liking you if you find "bundt cake" funny.

Dance is an ongoing hobby/obsession for me. Funkstyles (popping, waving, locking, etc) is a deep and addicting artform, one that's constantly evolving and bringing people together. I just finished up my first semester with a bay area dance crew called The DS Players, who kick all kinds of ass.

I like all kinds of films - good, slow foreign film, docs, noir, kung fu, satire, and mindless retro shit. My musical weakness is anything with a talkbox, indie rock (post-rock, especially), 90s hip-hop, rap with content, and prog house.

At 22, I'm at a stage where I never feel quite as informed or experienced as I'd like to be. I'm constantly trying to improve myself, and I mull a lot over what's ahead, never feeling quite satisfied with the present, never quite at ease if I'm not juggling multiple projects. I'm curious and anxious and excited for whatever's in store.

If you're self-aware, can think for yourself, can write concisely, and have more to say than what color streaks your hair are or what [x] quiz says you are, you're good in my book. :D
