2018. On location shooting The Manual with actors JJ Johnston & Lauren Emery. Hi, I’m Wil.
Writer, Director, & Video Editor with 20+ years of experience. I’ve collaborated with leading brands like Adidas, Nike, Columbia Sportswear, OHSU, The Nature Conservancy, and more. My commercial work has been recognized by Communication Arts Advertising and Clio Sports Awards.
I make films with my partner, Sara Magness. Our latest short, The Manual, played around the world, collecting awards including Best Director, Best Short Film, and others. It was sold to DUST where it’s been watched more than half-a-million times and counting.
I also write speculative fiction, and am currently in the midst of my second novel, with a few short stories set to publish in small presses and lit magazines in 2025.
