Words I Abide by

“In your line of work, always take the chance to ‘bump the lamp’, because somebody out there will notice.”Kristian Williams

 

The son of a Lieutenant Colonel, Killian never had one place to call home; home was where the Marine Corps sent you. Living in locations such as the California coast all the way to the tropical island of Okinawa, one thing that always stayed consistent was his family, and the loving bond they shared for movies.

Named after the antagonist in the 1987 action-fantasy “The Running Man”, some say Killian was indirectly influenced to work in the industry. Starting in 8th grade, he was in the AV class making videos and assisting with broadcasting the school’s daily news to all its students. It only took off from there.

A multi-award winning filmmaker, Killian has been honored to work with successful names such as Johnny Depp, Alice Cooper, Sammy Hagar, Tony Amendola, and Greg Grunberg. He strives to bring his creative passion and determination to every set, always looking towards the next project he sets his sights on.
