Director Biography - Robert Sutton, Rishabh Trivedi

Director - Robert Sutton
Robert Sutton is a multi-disciplinary artist born and raised in Austin, Texas. He found his love for movies spending time in his middle school library tearing through pages from the Universal Pictures BTS handbook. His works capture the complexities of shared experiences. Through the language of cinema he explores the themes of identity, consciousness of memory, and connection. He is currently working on a graphic novel and writing another film.

Director - Rishabh Trivedi
Rishabh Trivedi is an Indian-American Los Angeles based filmmaker focused on narrative shorts, features, commercials and music videos. He believes that great process yields great work, and always strives to create pieces that provoke an involuntary reaction of wonder out of the people watching. He always creates in service of his 13 year old self and is driven by projects that inspire a childlike nature of creativity and spark.

Both directors have worked together for 5 years and have both graduated from Loyola Marymount University.
