DIRECTORS

Kelly Nygaard began her directing career in the commercial world, creating spots for brands FIAT, Redvines, and The Donor Network.  She found her strength in both emotional and comedic work - receiving recognition as an emerging director for Shoot Magazine’s Director Showcase for her short for Ad Council, and an Addy Award for her PSA for Stop the Bleed.  Branching her commercial experience with her love for narrative work, Kelly has directed short films for Netflix and Comedy Central.  Most recently, Kelly directed “Vasectopia” as part of the film Give Me An A - a fiery response to the overturning of Roe v. Wade.
