Brandon Laventure is a filmmaker who finds inspiration in the struggle we all share: to do right by each other in a dangerous world. While working the graveyard shift in a Michigan auto parts factory, he wrote, produced, and directed six independent films with his sister Cameron and a close team of friends, before moving on to a dual MBA/MFA program at New York University. Cameron Laventure is an award-winning writer/director who aims to use classical narrative to tell radical stories. As a trans woman on the autism spectrum, she has a personal interest in celebrating underdogs and the marginalized. Today, she lives and works in Los Angeles with her brother. The Laventure siblings' work is informed by their shared past, from their low-income childhood to their recession-era balancing act of filmmaking and survival. These experiences led them from rural Michigan to the top film program in the world, culminating in their thesis film: the period horror, Out of Order. Read less
