As you can see, a respectable director always wears a beard.

So I decided to get (at least) the appearance of a respectable director and grow a beard during the shooting of "The Door".

Who else joins the "Beard of Directors Club"?

Documentation (before/during /after shooting) is required.

Got my beard growing as well right now. Unfortunately my beard growth sucks!

We'll see... maybe I keep it.... if it doesn't look too stupid :D
 
I always have a beard. I look 16 without one, not to mention just flat-out weird.

It's a bit scraggly, but it works for me.
 
I walked down that path for TimeFest. Ended up liking the beard so much I kept it. The wife likes it too. Bonus. :thumbsup:
 
My favorite directors all have beards (usually): Ridley Scott, James Cameron, Guillermo Del Toro, Peter Jackson... The list is too long!

Another bit of trivia, when George Lucas was a fresh faced young lad, one of his first jobs was documenting the making of Coppola's "The Rain People." Coppola was impressed by the intense and ambitious young man and took him under his wing.

When Lucas asked him how to become a feature film director, Coppola gave him only two pieces of advice:

1. Learn how to write screenplays.
2. Grow a beard.

The rest is history.


PS. Unfortunately, this advice does not apply to most women. :evil:
 
You better double check if she SAYS she likes it or if she actually does!
I've heard real bad stories about that .. haha! :)

I think this thread is like, probably the most awesome one ever, keep
the spirit up, and hey Zak Forsman, you look awesome in that beard :D
 
I'm doing it

I'm doing it

It's funny that someone would start this thread because I am actually growing out my "director's beard" for twilight fest :) it keeps my creative levels high!

now that I think about it, I grew one for time fest, but it was more for my "character" paying homage to Kevin Smith but after I shaved and went back to the typical Dustin Rogan facial hair, which is just the goatee...but I've not shaved, so I guess, count me in for the directors beard!

I will grow a beard.

And be a rich awesome director.

And make many feature films.

And enter twilight fest...

oh wait i guess i'm not doing any of the above :(

.... or am I?
