Sean Price Williams
Cinematographer, Filmmaker
Like many players on the New York independent-film scene, he started off working at Kim’s Video and Music, on St. Mark’s Place, before taking up cinematography for everything from features (the Safdie brothers’ Good Time) to documentaries (on Chinese taxi drivers), to experimental movies (on Kathy Acker) and music videos (for A$AP Rocky and Nas). The old guard has given their approval—Sean Price Williams has collaborated with Albert Maysles and Martin Scorsese. He is now working on his feature-film directorial debut, The Sweet East, starring Jacob Elordi.
