Directors Close-Up

The Directors Close-Up series invites filmmakers and film lovers to dive into an exclusive, interactive experience with leading voices in independent film and television.

Featuring a stellar lineup of global storytellers, this month-long event unfolds at the iconic Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts in Beverly Hills, presented in collaboration with Film Independent Presents and the Directors Guild of America.

 
In 2022, I crafted a bold new visual identity for Directors Close-Up that truly came alive in 2023 with even more vibrancy. This fresh design reflects the dynamic exchange of ideas, experiences, and stories from every corner of the world, converging in one place.
