Thrilled to welcome back Jason Wolk - Founder, Managing Director, and Executive Producer of Spears &amp; Arrows. As the leader of one of the top commercial production companies, Jason has a truly unique insight into the ever-changing advertising world and production.

From shifts in camera techniques and storytelling approaches, to changing client expectations, directors must constantly adapt to remain on top of the latest trends.
