<p>Jim Le is a native from Phoenix, Arizona, with interests in both film and French.</p>
<p>Influenced by his friendship with a Franco-American, Jim started learning French at 20 years old and studied in Aix-en-Provence in 2004. Jim returned to The University of Arizona in 2005 where he was admitted into the BFA Media Arts Program – an intensive 2-year curriculum in film &amp; video production that would help him develop his personal voice in both narrative and documentary mediums. Among his student work is his life-inspired short film <em>Park Bench </em>which<em> </em>has already circulated among several film festivals, including those in the US, Canada, and France, and also premiered on Canada&#8217;s OutTV network.</p>
<p>In 2007, Jim graduated with a BFA in Media Arts Production and a BA in French just before attending the 60th annual Cannes Film Festival where he interned with The American Pavilion and directed a short documentary for The Adobe Real Ideas Studio documentary competition. Following his internship, Jim continued to reside in France after having been selected by the French Ministry of Education and the Cultural Services at the French Embassy to participate in their assistantship program. During that time, Jim also worked as a consultant and production assistant for the Paris production company French Connection Films and helped develop and co-create their TV series <em>Expats</em>, which was also inspired by Jim&#8217;s experiences living as an expatriate in France.</p>
<p>In late 2009, Jim was granted the «Talent &amp; Skills» Visa from the French Consulate in Los Angeles to continue this project and further his film career in France. Since 2010, Jim has volunteered as a programming assistant for Jules Verne Adventures, a non-profit organization dedicated to the environment, adventure, science and fiction. He also currently works as a freelance translator and subtitle editor for several production companies.</p>
<p>Jim currently resides in Paris, France.</p>

<p>Jim Le est originaire de Phoenix, Arizona avec des intêrets en cinéma et en langue française.</p>
<p>Grâce à son amitié avec une franco-américaine, Jim a commencé à apprendre le français à l&#8217;age de vingt ans, et en 2004, il a amélioré son français pendant ses études à Aix-en-Provence. Dès son retour à <em>The Univeristy of Arizona</em> en 2005, Jim a été accepté à participer dans <em>The BFA Media Arts Program</em>, un programme d&#8217;études en production de cinéma où il a pu développer sa voix personnelle dans des projets narritifs et documentaires. La plupart de ses projets ont été inspirés de vraies expériences y compris son court-métrage <em>Park Bench, </em>officiellement selectionné dans plusieurs festivals aux Etats-Unis, au Canada et en France et enfin diffusé sur la chaîne de télévision <em>OutTV</em>.</p>
<p>En 2007, Jim a été diplômé en production de cinéma et en langue française juste avant de participer au soixantième anniversaire du Fesival de Cannes comme stagiaire pour <em>The American Pavilion</em>. Jim y a aussi réalisé un documentaire court pour une compétition entre 10 équipes organisé par <em>The Adobe Real Ideas Studio. </em>A la suite de son stage, le Ministère de l&#8217;Education Nationale et Les Services culturels de l&#8217;Ambassade de France aux Etats-Unis ont selectionné Jim en tant que professeur d&#8217;anglais dans des écoles primaires en Normandie. Grâce à son expérience d&#8217;expatrié, Jim a aussi travaillé comme consultant et assistant de production pour la société de production <em>French Connection Films</em> à Paris où il a aidé à développer leur série télévision <em>Expats.</em></p>
<p>A la fin de 2009, Jim a été bénéficiaire de la nouvelle carte de séjour «compétences et talents» accordée par le Consulat Général de France à Los Angeles qui lui permet de continuer son évolution professionelle en France. Depuis 2010, Jim a été bénévole et assistant de programmation pour Jules Verne Adventures, une association à but non-lucratif dédié à la nature, l&#8217;aventure, la science et la fiction. Il travaille aussi en tant que traducteur anglais et sous-titreur pour plusieurs sociétés de production.</p>
<p>Aujourd&#8217;hui, Jim habite toujours à Paris.</p>
