James R Petix
In the summer of 2001, director/editor James R. Petix saw the White
Stripes play a packed show at a tiny dive bar in their mutual
hometown. Within months, Detroit garage rock was an international
phenomenon and Petix turned his lens on it: the shows, sounds,
musicians, heightened expectations, dreams, drama …and ultimate
implosion of the whole affair. Six and a half years in the making,
Petix shot and edited “It Came From Detroit,” the resultant feature
length documentary, on nights and weekends while working 9-to-5 as a
commercial editor at top post houses. Recently relocated to Los
Angeles, Petix is directing music videos and working on his next major documentary project.
