The Process: Season 2 ~ Ep 2

Hailed by Filmmaker Magazine as one of 2018’s New Faces of Independent Film, Carey Williams is a director bringing a unique and visually striking cinematic eye to the exploration of the human condition. Williams aspires to evoke thought, reflection and positive change with his work by creating character centric art that explores social and class structure. A child of a hard-working single mother, Williams formative years were spent between two worlds - that of a middle to lower class environment and the world of the movies where anything was possible. Seduced by the power of film to disturb or delight and determined to bring his POV to the artform, he moved to California in his pursuits. In 2012, Williams directed CHERRY WAVES, which won Best Short film awards from HBO, NBC Shortcuts, San Diego Film Festival, as well as Best Narrative from Hollyshorts Film Festival. He honed his craft taking an apprenticeship with Emmy-winning director Greg Yaitanes on the critically acclaimed television show Banshee, where he directed an episode of the companion series Banshee: Origins. Williams received further tutelage as a mentee with Ryan Murphy’s Half Foundation, and was a directing fellow with the 2017 Film Independent Project Involve class. His recent film EMERGENCY is currently making the festival rounds and has received awards from festivals such as Sundance and SXSW
