Directors

Andrew Bredeson is an AWOL director specializing in vehicle-based shoots. His education is in cinematic narrative filmmaking, which shows in his methodical process: perfecting concepts in preproduction to run thoughtful shoots.

Bredeson gets inspiration from the equipment he uses, often using his antique cameras and lenses in new ways to achieve results that are timeless and unique. His experience shooting action, cars, and dramatic films makes his work feel like an event. He usually storyboards, scripts, shoots, edits, and colors his own work to put a personal touch on every aspect of production.

Marlon Rubio Smith is an award-winning Mexican-American director and producer. Born and raised in Mexico City, he developed a passion for cinema through superhero films.

His move to the United States profoundly shaped his life and drew him to stories exploring cultural identity, assimilation, and belonging. His short films, I’m New and ¿Cuando perdi mi cabeza?, have enjoyed success on the festival circuit.

Based in Austin, Texas, Marlon has worked with local brands, including Centro, Speakeasy, and Luminous Vision.
