SEAN CASSITY
PRODUCER
Sean Cassity earned his BA in Creative Writing and Psychology at the University of Arizona, which naturally led to a finance career as a media and telecom analyst at Moody’s Investor’s Service in lower Manhattan. As an analyst, Sean covered such industry leaders as Viacom, Verizon, Comcast and AT&T. He also initiated ratings on Infinity Broadcasting, Cingular Wireless, AT&T Wireless and Young & Rubicam. Early in the process of earning his MBA at Columbia Business School, Sean decided to combine his story telling urges and his business capacity and produce movies. He added several MFA classes at Columbia Film School to his schedule and learned filmmaking from the bolts up by working as an office PA in prep and a set PA during production on back to back indie features, “The Hebrew Hammer” and “Death of a Dynasty.” He also coordinated postproduction for the 2004 Sundance Dramatic Competition selection “Evergreen.” At Sundance he assisted “Evergreen’s” producers and coordinated the attending talent. Sean’s industry experience includes internships with ContentFilm, Salty Features and Miramax, where he donated his efforts while developing and producing his own projects. He currently provides freelance marketing support for Samuel Goldwyn Films and Roadside Attractions. Sean has produced 2 short films. His first feature production, “In the Blood,” premiered last summer at NewFest in New York and Outfest in Los Angeles.
