ABSTRACT
Directors come in all shapes and sizes, all ethnicities, all educational backgrounds, and both genders. There is nothing to physically or mentally link this group of people. In television and features, the theatrical world and the commercial, in reality shows and low-budget indies, there is an infinite variety of people who choose to direct. What links them are two qualities: a passion for storytelling and an ability to be a leader. But what is that? What is involved in “a passion for storytelling?” And what does it take “to be a leader?”
