Jim Malloy (Producer)
James E. Malloy, III, is an established professional and award winning photographer and photojournalist. In 1988, he was selected amongst his peers to become the Photography Editor for the Irvine Sports Journal. His photographs from the Harlem Globetrotters, Al Unser Jr., Sublime, The Ramones and coverage of the Lollapalooza concerts have appeared in the OC register, Irvine World News, Irvine Sports Journal, Mean Streets, OC WEEKLY and NME, as well as, this theatre program for Sperm Warfare and Pomp and Circumstance.
In 1989 Malloy simultaneously worked in both still and motion photography when he created Ocular Intrusion Productions, a boutique production and post studio- creating music video, concert films, and documentaries. He was a co-producer, DP and Editor on such underground SKA Music video hits as Angelo Moore’s DOVES of PEACE and Love, THE SKAPARADE-The Third Wave of Ska, and Albino Brown and Liberace’s shoes.
Malloy moved into feature films in 1993 with camera work on Gregg Araki’s Doom Generation, Chris Baugh’s PING and Ludi Boeken’s, Britney Baby One More Time- an official selection at Sundance. Frustrated that the films he worked on were receiving accolades, awards and praise at festivals, but not receiving distribution deals, in 1999, he joined Beyond the Box Productions to learn marketing, media and distribution of motion Pictures.
While at Beyond the Box, Malloy was a marketing strategist behind Gold Circle Films and Playtone’s surprise 2002 hit, My Big Fat Greek Wedding responsible for the grass roots campaign strategy and collateral materials (one sheet, TV spot, Trailer & digital EPK/press kit). He was also a member of the marketing team over seeing the creative and marketing strategy for clients such as IFC FILMS, Playtone, Samuel Goldwyn Films, Gold Circle Films and Universal.
Malloy left Beyond the Box in 2004 to take time with his new son and to create the Malloy Media Group handling the marketing, media and theatrical release strategy for Bobby Jones-Stroke of Genius, starring Jim Caviezel, Claire Forlani, and Malcolm McDowell and simultaneously continued to manage, develop and option a slate of film properties with his producing colleagues-Josh Smith and Seth Wimmer of Smith Wimmer CG, INC.
Malloy’s recent campaigns are Bottom’s Up starring Paris Hilton, Jason Mewes, Kevin Smith and David Keith, 7-10 Split a bowling comedy starring Tara Reid, Rachel Hunter, Ross Patterson and Vinnie Jones and Oranges starring Tom Sizemore, Tom Arnold and Heather Locklear, which will be released theatrically via a new distribution company, Deco Releasing, a venture he is helming with his producing colleague, Freddy Braidy.
Malloy has a bachelor’s degree from the University California-Irvine and a film production degree from the Hollywood Film Institute. He currently resides in Los Angeles with his wife, Julie and their three-year old son, Jimmy. This May, they look forward to the arrival of their second son, Jack.
