Hello, my name is Sean Ryan and I am eager to enter the world of film and video production. I am an alumni of SUNY Purchase College where I graduated with a BA in Cinema and Television Studies.

I hope to use my background in film studies to allow me to inform my production work, drawing on film styles, aesthetics, and theory to create one of a kind and elevated products.…Hello, my name is Sean Ryan and I am eager to enter the world of film and video production.
