Will and Ian are a couple living in Los Angeles since 2020. They’ve been crafting award-winning films together since their serendipitous meeting on the steps of their Brooklyn apartment building in 2013.

Graduating from NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts in 2014, Will has since worked as an editor with a track record of success at prestigious film festivals, including Sundance, Berlin, Venice, Telluride, and Tribeca. His experience spans independent features, shorts, and series, having edited 10 Vimeo Staff Picked films, two of which earned the coveted title of Best Video of the Year.

Ian, with a career spanning writing and professional acting since his teens, has left an indelible mark on popular commercials, film, television, and video games.

Their collaborative journey began post-film school with the creation of First Night Out (2015), a poignant two-minute single-take short, depicting the beginning of a trans person’s journey in coming out, directed by Will and written and produced by Ian. Premiering at NewFest and subsequently showcased at Aspen Shortsfest, the film earned recognition as a Vimeo Staff Pick and secured a $25,000 film grant for their next film, a documentary called As Beautiful Inside (2016), a Palm Springs Shortfest selection and Vimeo Staff Pick.

In 2017, they leveraged their storytelling skills to create two branded shorts for Kodak and Condé Nast, called Ghostfish and Secondhand, respectively. Despite a hiatus following their move to Los Angeles during the pandemic, they resurfaced in 2023 with The Mountain, an official selection of Hamptons International Film Festival.
