Up-And-Coming Directors
The longstanding SHOOT tradition of searching out new talent continues with this feature interviewing a select group of emerging directors.  It's also a tradition not to announce the names of these directors until the issue is published - it's always worth the wait! Here's a peek at some information about them...

• A director whose first U.S. projects garnered Grammy recognition as well as an ad slot in this year's Super Bowl telecast.
• A former agency creative director who's landed her first production house roost and has already settled successfully into the director's chair.
• An artisan whose work on an ambitious global documentary campaign honed his people / storytelling skills and eventually led to what's shaping up as a broad-based directorial career spanning comedy and emotionally resonant fare.
• A director whose recent endeavors span 2nd unit work on a major feature, his first primetime TV series, and a mix of ad fare that includes sponsor tie-ins to major Marvel theatrical releases as well as stand-alone commercials.
• An artist who brings a stellar familiy filmmaking lineage and an accomplished track record as an illustrator to the table, translating into an impressive directorial debut with a short film that's currently part of a global exhibition.
