Research into a directors

Upcoming Director

A film director is a person who directs the making of a film. Generally, a film director controls a film's artistic and dramatic aspects, and visualizes the script while guiding the technical crew and actors in the fulfillment of that vision

Director Examples
Matthew Bate is an upcoming director who has created films such as The Mystery of the Flying Kicks"& Shut Up Little Man! An Audio Misadventure. He has been nominated for multiple awards from multiple film festivals. I felt that this up and coming director stood out to me, his work really impacted my thoughts on short films.

Red balloon.jpgLamorisseportrait.jpgAlbert Lamorisse was a french filmmaker, film producer and writer, who is best known for his award winning short films which he began making in the late 1940s. One of his works which really grabbed my attention was "The Red Balloon" The thirty-four minute short, which follows the adventures of a young boy who one day finds a sentient, mute, red balloon, was filmed in the Ménilmontant neighborhood of Paris. It won numerous awards, including an Oscar for Lamorisse for writing the best original screenplay in 1956 and the Palme d'Or for short films at the 1956 Cannes Film Festival. The film also became popular with children and educators. This is the only short film to win the Academy Award for Best Writing (Original Screenplay).
