Sundance award-winner Dylan Holmes Williams has signed to Stink Films new directing talent roster Stink Rising, to be represented for music videos and commercials in the UK.

The young British director (pictured above, left) recently won the Best International Short prize at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival for his short film The Devil’s Harmony, which was also a winner at Raindance Festival last year and nominated at the British Independent Film Awards. 

This follows his acclaimed short films for Stilts (2019) and The House On Deskteeth Street (2017), where he began to establish a reputation for his ‘grounded supernaturalism’ style and darkly comic tone. Holmes Williams has also directed several music videos: two for Artificial Pleasure, including the VOTD winner I'll Make It Worth Your While, Banfi and Ash. 

Katie Lambert, executive producer at Stink Rising, says: "It’s great to have a new addition to Stink Rising in the shape of Dylan Holmes Williams. Dylan is not only a fantastic writer and director but also a stand-up chap and all around good time guy. I can’t wait to see what we can make together."
