TJ Graduated from Life University with a doctorate degree in
Chiropractic. He was in private practice until 2005, when he went into
exclusive chiropractic for his high profile clients. He now
concentrates the rest of his time Stunt Coordinating, 2nd Unit
Directing and producing.
Being on movies sets since he was a kid, watching his father Terry James 2nd unit direct and stunt coordinate only started to peak the interest of this gifted mind. In fact, as a late teen when on set of Darkman (1990) he would go around with his father's High 8 Sony camera shooting scenes for playback, then director Sam Raimi shots for adjustments. Interesting enough is that after playback where ever TJ was taking those shots were exactly where Raimi would set up the next camera angle. This is when TJ knew that he had an eye to direct.
Working in the stunt business for over 21 years TJ has done stunts and stunt coordinated music videos, television shows, and film's most action packed sequences. Films like Scream 2 (1997), Three Kings (1999), Rock Star (2001), 8 Mile (2002), Live Free Or Die Hard (2007), Halloween 2 (2009), are just a handful of films that TJ has been involved in and made sure that the action was packed with realism. Many music artists like Britney Spears, 50 Cent, Justin Bieber, and JLo have called upon TJ to stunt coordinate their music videos in order to get that glossy action look that keeps viewers wanting more. Working with high profile directors, producers, and actors has been seamless for TJ.
Producing and 2nd unit directing has also come effortless to TJ with films like The Hard Easy (2006) and the Deceit (2006).
TJ's full service company, T-Minus Productions, is on the forefront of innovative and visionary projects that are currently in development and pre-production.
