RYAN CHRISTOPHER LEE Is a creative professional based out of New York City with a skill set in film directing, cinematography, color grading, and motion graphics. He is primarily focused on documentary and commercial forms of media, though also proficient in narrative and experimental styles of filmmaking.

Though no project is without purpose, Ryan pursues opportunities that bring about new experiences and insights beyond simple professionalism, finding the most fulfillment in documentary-style portraits either for commercial or entertainment, as well as music videos of various genres and styles. Additionally, he is driven by the importance of addressing issues of social injustice, particularly those stemming from poverty such as human trafficking, sexual exploitation, and unethical labor.
