Thomas "BJ" Williams-EL

Digital Cinematographer. Documentarian. Philanthropist. 
Always had an passion for art, eventually marrying my affinity for technology into cinematography.  A native of Washington, DC, I started my media production career path at Morehouse College.While working at both Morehouse and Spelman, I helped craft an admission teaser video with several other students that garnered a fair amount of acclaim. My work's popularity swelled as the video enjoyed a viral buzz and requests for visuals brimmed over the gates of my Alma mater.
​
Since 1999, I've enjoyed hundreds of productions, crews by the dozen and several priceless mentorships.
