Where were you born? Cincinnati, OH
Where do you live? Houston, TX
When did you decide that this is what you want to do? – When I was a music major at Texas Southern University I wanted to create visuals to go along with the music we were making.
Are there any celebrities that you’ve worked with? yes, I’ve worked with Micheal Williams (Omar from wire), Mike Epps, Lil Wayne, T.I. , and Lupe Fiasco (to name a few)
Which Celebrities fit your style, and that you would want to work with? – Clint Eastwood, he is a master storyteller, and has been around since the days of Otto Preminger to Sergio Leone to directing films himself.
Do you enjoy shooting by the water? Doesn’t matter to me. I shot in the Dominican Republic once and the water was beautiful.
Do you make your own sets or you enjoy going on location? I enjoy and do both, but I enjoy going on location the most. I like to travel and experience new places. I also relish the challenge of making what’s written come to life and often shooting on location provides the realness needed.
What is some advice that you can give to a future male/female model? NEVER QUIT. If you have a goal or dream, do whatever you have to do to make it happen, fight for it til your last breath.
What is one thing that you hate people to do while on set? TARDINESS!!!
When its time for you to do an interview do you enjoy it or get nervous? I enjoy, I love talking. I mean I have so many dope things going on I can talk forever.
Which do you really enjoy working on…Movies, videos or commercials? MOVIES, hands down.
You don’t have to name names, but what do you hate for the artists to do while on set? I hate when an artist is late to set, I have ZERO tolerance for that.
Which video to date was the one you most enjoyed making and why? Spit Yo Game by The Notorious, because of the opportunity to be apart of the legacy of the great BIG. I also got the chance to work with Swizz Beatz, Twista, Bone,Thug & Harmony, and 8 Ball & MJG all on one project. This video brought together a lot of legends.
What helps you get creative when making video treatment? (music,people,movies) GOOD MUSIC. Good music is always easy to write to.
Do you write your own treatment or your open to work with others? I write my own treatments but if you are a good treatment writer I’m interested in working with you. You can get at me via email at drteeth04 [at] yahoo [dot] com, I’m searching for new talent.
What type of artists would you rather work with? Rappers,rock etc… R&B are my favorite. I don’t think they get the love and respect they deserve, and they are some of the best storytellers.
Is it more important to have a great make up artist or a good stylist? BOTH, because one compliments the other.
Any shout outs? Yes, I want to send a shout out to my dog Kevin Canine as he look at me from the floor of my living room as I do this interview. No really he is my dog. Shout out to Cherrell Rene, she is the dopest, everyone should get you one, but don’t waste your time calling her if you don’t have your paper right!!! The Nasty Natti, and all of my friends in my old neighborhood Evanston, Jami Z for the opportunity to do this interview. And finally to my baby mamas, you know who you are, QUIT CALLING ME, I sent the damn money. Especially baby mama #27 Rose P, you get the nerves the MOST of ALL. Just drop Rose Jr off and keep it MOVIN. Thanks for the opportunity!!!! —

Shannon Williams: Model, Actress

Location: Atlanta, Ga Occupation: Actress, Model Link: www.myspace.com/williasn Bio: One glance at Shannon M. Williams and you will understand why she is one of the most sought after new faces in today’s entertainment world. Her exotic features, coupled with the perfect hour glass figure leaves lasting first impressions. However, there is much more to this Ohio native than meets the eye. Growing up in Cincinnati, OH, a city not quite known for its diversity and culture, Shannon found a way to feed her gift and talent. In 2003, she was chosen from thousands of young women to compete in the Miss Ohio USA Pageant. Although she wasn’t selected, it was there she realized an affinity for the spotlight. Shannon spent the next couple of years modeling and hosting a local UPN Television show, gaining experience with each endeavor. However, her ambition was far greater than the opportunities that Cincinnati could provide. Shannon stepped out on faith, and moved to Atlanta, GA in June 2006. Immediately, she landed her first professional photo shoot and within a week was handpicked to shoot for a national advertisement campaign. The work kept rolling in. Within the past year, Shannon has modeled for Metro Styles hair magazine, shot a Pelle Pelle campaign, and graced the cover of the Bronner Brothers Fantasy magazine. Her television work has included modeling for BET’s Hip-Hop Awards and Rip the Runway. She worked on MTV’s/Nick Cannon’s Wild’N Out television show, and she also appeared in a national Dodge commercial. |
| Miss Williams has been very selective about the work she involves herself in. Many opportunities have been presented to her but when director Lil’ X called her to ask if she’d star as the lead actress in the Usher/R. Kelly ‘Same Girl’ video, she could not refuse. What attracted her most about that opportunity was the fact that she would have a chance to display her acting skills.So what is next for this beautiful model hailing from the state that brought us Jayne Kennedy, and Halle Berry (both former Miss Ohio USA candidates as well)? Currently Shannon is wrapping up on a pilot episode of a new series entitled ‘The A’. This adult drama featuring Clifton Powell and Eva Pigford is in the spirit of HBO’s Sex in the City and Entourage, however focusing on African Americans living in Atlanta. Shannon plays the lead, Brooke Rivers, a young lady who has the city of Atlanta in the palm of her hand. On set, Miss Williams has displayed a strong work ethic, screen presence, and tremendous acting ability, which will make her transition from model to actor a smooth one.
While not judging the book by its cover… Although stunningly gorgeous, it is what Shannon M. Williams is made of that proves she is a star; her tenacity guarantees that her star will shine for years to come. |
