Date:

Easily among our favorite curated lists/annual page turners, Filmmaker Magazine has unveiled their 25 New Faces (or 29, when you count the quad creative teams) for 2014, highlighting talents that would also get our vote. Among those with a future that is bright, we’ve got a good sampling from this year’s Sundance Film Fest in A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night‘s helmer Ana Lily Amirpour, short film gold nugget helmers Janicza Bravo (see pic above) & Bernardo Britto, the versatile, can’t sit still Dustin Guy Defa who moves in front of (Swim Little Fish Swim, Computer Chess) and behind the camera for SXSW and Sundance short and feature length film items and, the future is bright cinematographer Sean Porter who we first discovered with It Felt Like Love and then laid it on thick with the Zellner Bros.’ Kumiko, the Treasure Hunter. Here are the individual profiles.
