My name is Doug Williams and I am an independent filmmaker and video artist living in the San Francisco Bay Area. I'm excited to join Model Mayhem and to meet new people to cast for music videos, commercials and other projects.

My super creepy ice cream commercial for Little baby's Ice Cream has over 5 Million views and counting!
