Meet Gadrien Williams | Writer/Director/Editor/Filmographer

We had the good fortune of connecting with Gadrien Williams and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Gadrien, is there a quote or affirmation that’s meaningful to you?
“F being famous I’d rather be GHETTO GLOBAL… “
Fame at times comes with a price, a price not all of us are willing to pay. Being behind the scenes is where my passion lies. To write and create new worlds for viewers to explore ignites my fire to provide new stories for people to relate too. Some people do things merely for fame and financial advancement. My focus is to Genuinely Help Everyone Treaded Through Oppression, Giving Light Offering Brotherhood And Loyalty. Ghetto Global. I want my production company to be more than just a film entity, my hopes are to make people laugh, cry, and to feel emotion through my art. To spread love through powerful messages that must be watched and heard. Even to be a reflection to ourselves with hopes of waking us up. I want to change the world using film as a tool. So… F being famous id rather be GHETTO GLOBAL…….Me

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
When I write, I sit back and let my soul speak through my pen. The way I tell stories is no greater or lesser than all the other dope story tellers of our time but it’s literally the individualism which sets me apart. We all have seen and experienced different things but at the same time we’ve experienced relatable things which connects us. My point of margin doesn’t always start at me, it maybe someone I know or a scenario I’ve witnessed. What makes me different is the ability to create new tales that have somewhat been told before but from another point of view.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
I would most definitely take them to Phat Fish get them some wings and shrimp fried rice, for sure. I like to hike and be in nature, so Arabia Mountain always a cool vibe. Probably would do Fuego De Chao for dinner. For drinks I’m taking them to Gresham Rd drive through liquor store and we getting a bottle, unless they wana do something outside then we can hit a lounge, shoot some pool which there are plenty of down here in Atlanta. But I can’t tell yall all my spots though.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I would like to dedicate this Shot Out feature to my sister Mercedes Morton,
Thank you Moses for being my first best friend, my big sister, sparring partner when we were younger and mentor and life coach as we got older. Honestly I could have not persevered without your encouragement or support and for that I am forever grateful I love you.. 🌎
