A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Alias:
James Brice Beckham
Birthplace:
Long Beach, California, USA
Born:
February 11, 1976
While he is best known as "Wesley" from the 1980s sitcom Mr. Belvedere (1985), Brice has gone on to establish a prolific career behind the camera as a writer, producer and editor. He co-created the VH1 series I Hate My 30's (2007) with producing partner David Fickas, and a screenplay they wrote with Justin Lin ("Hollywood Adventures") became the #1 movie at the Chinese box office in the summer of 2015. A childhood passion for drawing evolved into skills in design, animation and motion graphics. Brice's artistic talents have been brought to bear on official music videos for Eric Clapton, a web promo for Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017), the official poster for the documentary Mortified Nation (2013), and title sequences for numerous digital series. Brice grew up in Long Beach, CA, where he attended Woodrow Wilson High School and was active in the theatre program there. It was at USC School of Theatre that he began collaborating with David Fickas, and their production company, Drama 3/4, has been in business for more than 15 years. He resides in Los Angeles.

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
