| Oj joined an acting
academy in 1978 doing “extra” work in Phoenix,
AZ. He continued his martial arts training developing
demos and fighting sequences. He moved to California
in 1987 and continued his training and fight choreography.
In 1993 Oj created S.T.O.R.M. (Special Tactics Optimum
Response Methods) a multi-style method of martial arts
training. He re-entered the film industry in 1998 shortly
after working several stunt fighting schools in Los
Angeles. He was quickly selected to appear as a stunt
fighter and body guard in a film called “Final Payback”
staring Richard Grieco. Oj continued to work in several
more films at Universal Studios displaying fighting
and choreography skills with veteran action director
Art Camacho and a host of other veteran actors and great
action people like Eric Lee, Cynthia Rothrock, Don “The
Dragon” Wilson, Richard Norton, Sam “Flash Gordon” Jones,
Sasha “Kick boxer 2 & 3” Mitchell, Costas “Picket
Fences” Mandylor, Kathleen “Renegade” Kinmont, Richard
Grieco, Victor “Mutant X-TV series” Webster, Vincent
“Cyborg” Klyn, and Tim “Project Viper” Thomerson.
Almost immediately Oj became involved
with an independent film company in San Diego producing,
acting, and developing smaller projects for DVD and
direct to video releases. He also designed and created
a stunt team with a handful of select individuals.
His martial arts training and construction experience
helped him create many developments linked to the
film industry to help it run more efficiently and
under budget. There can be a lot of waste in the film
industry and Oj plans to reduce that significantly.
Oj returned back to Phoenix in 2002
and continued working his small production company
with his then partners creating possible TV series
and shooting trailers for them in 2003-2004. Conflicts
and discouragements soon claimed that company and
it was closed. Oj continued working small parts and
going back to acting classes in Phoenix between 2004
- 2006. Along this time Oj had been working on and
perfecting a new script template which will be used
exclusively by Mission Bell Studios and plans to market
it to the masses in the film industry. Oj met Jim
Rosin in 2005 and joined the Mission Bell Team in
2007.
