Director Biography

A fan of film his whole life, Sean realized at age 11 that his goal was to become a storyteller. He studied film in college, spending his first two years at Five Towns College and his last two years at the School of Visual Arts. Besides working on over thirty student films, he has made his own content under his production company name “Punky Studios”. Sean plans to get into the field of post production with his passion for film editing. Eventually he hopes to make more short films and possible features with his friends.
