Directors Close-Up

A new visual direction for one of Film Independent's celebrated annual events.

About the project
The Directors Close-Up series invites filmmakers and film enthusiasts into an exclusive, interactive experience with some of the most influential voices in independent film and television. Presented in partnership with Film Independent Presents and the Directors Guild of America, the month-long program takes place at the iconic Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts in Beverly Hills and features a world-class lineup of storytellers. In 2022, I developed a bold new visual identity for the series, which came to life with even greater vibrancy in 2023. The refreshed design captures the dynamic exchange of ideas, perspectives, and stories from around the globe, brought together in one creative space.
