James Alexander discovered his love for film when he was first introduced to a VHS camcorder around the age of twelve years old. Soon after, he and his friends became obsessed with re-making horror films after watching ‘The Texas Chainsaw Massacre’ together. The woods behind their homes became a cherished film set. James hasn’t put a camera down since.
Later on, James attended film school in The North East of England where he found himself in the presence of other aspiring filmmakers. It was there that James first watched ‘Paris,Texas’ a film that would inspire his future love of the American landscape. Seeing America through foreign eyes, like Wim Wenders did, is something James hopes to capture within his own work.
James is currently in development of a feature script entitled ‘Two Sisters’ which is a road movie set in the Californian desert.
