The past few years have certainly been eventful for independent producer Jim Young. Since forming his production company Animus Films three years ago, Young has worked tirelessly to make his mark in the industry. An alumnus of Film Independent's Producers Lab (2008), where he received the Alfred P. Sloan Producers Grant, Young has served as producer and executive producer for projects at Showtime, HBO, and Fox Sports; has projects in development with companies including Benderspink, Relativity, National Geographic, and Untitled; and has two fully produced features, Homecoming (2009) starring Mischa Barton and the upcoming Don McKay, a comic-thriller about a high school janitor who returns to his hometown after twenty-five years to rekindle a romance with his dying ex-girlfriend only to discover that his trip home had more in store for him than he thought, starring Thomas Haden Church, Elizabeth Shue, and Melissa Leo.
