Malik Hassan Sayeed is an American cinematographer, producer and director, widely recognized for his work on the 1998 film, Belly. He is represented by production company Little Minx.[1]

Education

Sayeed graduated from Howard University in 1990 with a degree in Film Studies.[2][3] Notably, he studied under leading member of the L.A. Rebellion, Haile Gerima.[4] He also attended the Maine Photographic Workshops.[3][5]

Career

Sayeed was a second unit director of photography on Stanley Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut and Andrew Niccol's Gattaca and was the cinematographer for Hype Williams' Belly and Spike Lee's The Original Kings of Comedy, Girl 6, He Got Game and Clockers.

Sayeed had served on the electrical crews for Spike Lee's Malcolm X and Crooklyn before Lee promoted him to director of photography for Clockers. Prior to this promotion, Sayeed had worked on music videos with Hype Williams and television commercials with Lee.[3] Three years after Clockers, he served as director of photography for Belly.[6][7] As of 2023, this was his last dramatic feature to be released.[7] Though Sayeed has continued working in music, notably directing or serving as cinematographer for videos like Lauryn Hill's "Ex-Factor," D'Angelo's "Left & Right," and Beyonce's "Formation" and "Brown Skin Girl."[8][9][10][11][12]

After working with Arthur Jafa (cinematographer for Crooklyn) on Seven Songs for Malcolm X, Sayeed and Jafa started to develop a closer relationship.[3] In 2014, Sayeed along with Jafa and Elissa Blount Moorhead launched TNEG, an independent film studio and production company with the goal of creating a "Black cinema as culturally, socially, and economically central to the 21st century as was Black music to the 20th century."[13][14]

Awards

In 1999, Sayeed was nominated for an Independent Spirit Award: Best Cinematography for Belly (1998)[15][4] He has won MTV Video Music Awards for "Formation" and "Brown Skin Girl" amongst other music videos.[10][12]
