Sean Zaccheo

DGA, ICG

Filmmaker and photographer, Sean Zaccheo’s work includes key projects for international production companies like Caviar, where he has served as Director, Director of Photography and Stills Photographer with clients such as General Motors, DraftKings, Sprint, Amazon, United Airlines, T-Mobile and Nationwide, amongst others.

Whether he’s directing or behind the lens, Sean’s primary concern is to determine the best possible avenue to tell his client’s story and connect with their audience. One that will always position the brand in the best possible manner while providing the most versatility and content optimization, but most importantly, one that will sell.

Storytelling began at a young age for Sean when, at 13 years old, his 16mm B&W short subject film, “Pusher Men”, became a teaching tool for the NYFA high-school program. From there Sean quickly fell under the tutelage of Director Brent Jones and Rick Portin, the former Head of Production at both E! and Microsoft TV. During this time, he worked with clients and companies such as Nissan, Nestlé, Dodge, Aéro Film, Original Film, Motion Theory and THR TV. Working with these clients in high-profile environments and being part of the management process taught Sean the importance of telling the right story with the highest available production values. Those experiences provided the foundation for Sean’s success and client work today, as he continues to strive for the best.

"Resourceful, dedicated, ambitious, original are a few of the words that come to mind when I think of Sean, and not necessarily in that order. His multifaceted talent is an asset to any project. He’s willing and able and performs admirably in any situation. Quick with an idea and a solution, Sean’s always there pulling his weight and more.”
