As you can see from the following list (completely copy/pasted from the Film Athens website, btw), there’s one hell of a competition going on at this year’s Sprockets Video. Naturally, Jason Thrasher, Brett Vaughen, Tim Daust, and Ethan Payne have made the cut as have quite a few other gifted directors.
