William channels his diverse creative background into his filmmaking. By drawing on his varied experiences, he continues to push his creative practice with the aim to command abstract ideas with a bold cinematic language.
He majored in Digital Media at the College of Fine Arts, which later led to working professionally as an augmented reality designer for fashion, design and lifestyle magazines. After a few years in the industry, he moved on as a video producer independently creating content for major magazines. On the other hand, as a video artist, he fuses sound and performance in collaboration with local electronic music artists.
He recently completed a post-graduate certificate in Directing from the Australian Film, Television, Radio School which enabled him to hone his skills as a director and broaden his knowledge of cinema.
His works have been broadcasted on Australian television and screened at festivals such as Sydney Festival and Antenna Documentary Film Festival.
Growing up as the youngest boy in a family with two older sisters, I remember the traumatising moments in my childhood when my sisters would force me to wear make-up and play dress-up with them.
When I was approached by the three-piece female punk band Suss Cunts to direct the music video for ‘Anaemic Boyfriend’, the song immediately brought me back to my days as a living doll in my sisters’ fantasy world.
I channeled my pre-teen sisters in directing the semi-reluctant male cast.
Me and my sisters are closer than ever.
