My name is Mykaila Williams
& I am an LA based cinematographer.
As a Black, queer abolitionist and community builder, I use cinematography to help audiences imagine a better world for Black people.
While at USC Film School, I held various leadership roles, gained experience consulting on high-profile issues of diversity,
equity, and inclusion and produced a senior thesis project.
At the turn of the COVID-19 pandemic and amidst heightened global focus on race, I took a leap of faith in a different direction to further develop my skills that more tangibly serve my community. I love working with Black independent creatives, nonprofit organizations and
Black owned businesses.
When I'm not shooting, I'm working with Outlast Arts & Education as Assistant Director, helping develop All In the Family Productions
or making you a cup of specialty coffee.
I am currently freelancing in Los Angeles.
