Project By
Connected as Jamie Morris (338 friends)
I graduated from the University of California, Riverside and while producing local theatre projects I started playing with cameras and developed an interest in documentaries.
On the job training, if you will.
In 2002, I moved to Japan and shortly after began production on "Sayonara Speed Tribes," the first foreign treatment on the subject of Japan’s infamous motorcycle gangs, BOSOZOKU.
My articles have been published in magazines and I have had BOSO footage featured on my beloved BBC.
I can currently be tracked down running around the streets of Tokyo with a camera permanently attached to my right arm, or fighting the blurry eyes that come from editing for.... how many hours now?
I currently live and work in Japan but my heart is in the California desert somewhere.
