James Hilton, aged 19, was born in Wetaskiwin Alberta on January 4th, 1990. He resided in the small city until he was 5, when his family of four, himself, parents, and newborn younger brother, immigrated to Northern Alberta. They would stay their for 12 years before God called them back to Wetaskiwin.
James Hilton exhibited signs of artistic talent even at a young age. He picked up his first crayola marker when he was six months old. By the time he was five, he was creating stories on paper featuring crude but still distinguishable stick figures in the likeness of Looney Tunes characters.
Throughout his life, he cultivated his talent, learning the laws and physics of cartooning. His years of practicing resulted in his ability to draw his own characters, further enhancing the creativeness of his stories. His objective was to perfect the design of his art to use them in what he considered the height of story telling: cinema.
For most of his life, James always knew he wanted to be in cinema, whether it be film or television. Before he was about 13, he was confident that his future lay in cartoon writing the like of Garfield and Calvin and Hobbes. When his stories, usually science fiction in nature and composed of highly complex plots, exceeding the creative capacity of a four-panel comic strip, James realized that he needed to be in cinema.
He continued to harness his artistic talent to be used for his stories, which sometimes took years of working to shape. His sole goal in everything was to tell stories to the world, and he wanted to use the characters he created to do that.
He is currently enrolled at Providence College in Otterburne, Manitoba, finally pursuing his dream through a major in Communications and Media.
