Available to hire
Hi, I’m Brandon Williams, a versatile A/V and video production professional based in the DC area. I love building reliable AV setups, capturing crisp audio and visuals, and delivering broadcasts and videos that meet high standards. I thrive in fast-paced environments, troubleshoot on the fly, and enjoy collaborating with directors and clients to realize their vision.
When I’m not behind the mixer or editing suite, I enjoy exploring new techniques in lighting, color correction, and post-production workflows. I’m open to opportunities in the Washington, DC area and beyond, and I’m happy to relocate.
