Highlights from James
As I am fairly new to this position, I like to believe most of my highlights are still to come, but I did have the pleasure of shooting a host for my first network job that years before I worked with as a PA on an entirely different show. Really goes to show you never know how your career will go or who you will work with again and share memories with.

Dependable, Team Player with Evolving Skils
I met James on a random job in SF during COVID. I was doing media management. He was the COVID Safety Officer. As usual for me, our conversation eventually lead me to mention the feature film project I have been working on for forever. James showed interest so I told him I’d follow up down the line when we got the next round of shoots going. Most people never actually follow through. So, it’s always a welcome surprise when someone does.
Mr. Thornton, III first came on board in December of 2021 and has continued to be a part of the team whenever his busy schedule permits. He’s dependable, realistic with his time and a team player, understanding what it takes to get a job done…that projects aren’t all glitz and glam. He’s always friendly and eager to help. With every shoot he attends I see growth in him and his skillsets, especially his photography.
James has shot some beautiful unit stills and behind the scenes photos for Fight 4 Your Life that always get smiles and thanks. I wish he was on every shoot with me. But if he’s busy, and he usually is, that means he’s working and growing, which is what a dedicated and hard worker like him deserves.
Do yourself and your fellow production crew a favor. Hire this man!!!
James!!
It’s always a pleasure to have James on set! He’s punctual, kind, multi-talented and has a keen eye. I always feel comforted when I have the best crew and James is one of those rare finds! Book him with confidence!
