Neil Ferron
Neil Ferron is a second year Directing Fellow at the AFI Conservatory. As a playwright, his work has received Critics’ Picks from The Seattle Times, Seattle Magazine, and The Seattle Weekly, as well as nominations for a Gregory Award (2011, Best Playwright) and a Stranger Genius Award (2014, The Satori Group). In 2014, he moved to filmmaking, starting with music videos. His music videos have been screened at national festivals and premiered by Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, and Stereogum. His work has been described as “wonderfully surreal” (Sub Pop Records), “shocking, horrific and just a little bit funny” (Rolling Stone), and a “Ph.D testing of a calculated hypothesis on what ‘works’ on the human consciousness” (Seattle Weekly). Neil holds an Honors BA in Literature and Creative Writing from Santa Clara University, a creative writing certificate from Stanford University, and--thanks to a George J. Mitchell Scholarship--an MPhil in Theatre and Performance from Trinity College Dublin. He will be receiving his MFA in Film Directing from the AFI Conservatory in 2020.
