This week we're asking the multi-hyphenate storyteller Elaine Del Valle (Brownsville Bred, Midnight Hustle), how do you become a director? With a start as an actor, then shifting into casting, and later realizing her great passion for directing, you'll take away a great lesson in positive thinking and perseverance. After adapting her novel and stage play to a feature film, and being celebrated by SXSW, HBO, and Sundance for her work as a filmmaker, you'll want to watch her genre bending dance-drama-thriller Midnight Hustle (now streaming).
