‏James Keating‏

He was born in Oxford in 1982 and attended one of the most salubrious schools in the world; The Dragon School, with his alumni including Emma Watson, Hugh Laurie and Joely Richardson.

He was a natural born artist, with an aptitude for any medium and he excelled in his creative studies. He would draw, paint and sculpt, both in and outside of his school environment...but one day, James wrote narratives to accompany his artwork and he discovered a vocation for creative writing.

In the late 1990's, James wrote an epic science fiction series of his own devising, which he then adapted into a graphic novel.

This path eventually leads him to collaborating with directors, filmmakers and fellow writers and over the past 20-years, he has worked on literally hundreds of projects; for film, television and also stage.

In 2012, he was asked by a friend for advice in writing a new series. It was intended to promote a charitable cause and support the rights of the terminally ill and James created an utterly unique dark comedy, which was tempered with a powerful and relevant political message.

In 2014, he met a noted producer and has since worked on a myriad of different genres and on scripts that work in both the UK and Thailand.

In 2016, James met and began a profound collaboration with the actor and filmmaker Daniel Stisen. They have now worked on numerous projects, which include both full-feature film, television and online series.

James has slaved to earn the opportunity to write for his established and noted peers, as well although he works with industry's top brass; he will also write short and independent films for the next generation, when he believes in the people.

And so, whether it's working to a brief, reimagining a classic, or developing his own projects; James has become a respected member of the industry.
