hails from Dallas, TX, where he began his film career at age 19 as an intern for a commercial production company, simultaneously making coffee for ad executives and shooting his first feature on weekends—a mockumentary about an unemployed ninja.  He has since supported his filmmaking endeavors by working as a freelance commercial editor.

Bill’s last short film, Robots Are Blue, experienced significant success, publicly screening more than 40 times around the globe and taking honors at 9 festivals.  Cinequest released the film as part of its Second Sight DVD Series last year.  Additional honors include top three finishes at the Dallas Video Festival’s 24 Hour Video Race four years in a row.

Midlothia marks Sebastian’s first feature since teen-hood, as well as his first departure from stright comedy into character-driven drama.  Past directorial work can be seen at www.intentionalfilms.com.  Bill currently resides in Los Angeles.
