Anthony E. Cabral, also known as “ACE”, is an award-winning filmmaker and sought after assistant director who has been working in film, television, and video production for almost thirty years. He started working on productions while in school at Missouri State University where he graduated with a degree in Mass Media: Film Studies and Production. He has successfully navigated and worked on projects ranging from low-budget independent films up to Disney television programs. He is an active member of the Directors Guild of America (DGA), the Producers Guild of America (PGA), and the Screen Actors Guild (SAG-AFTRA). Away from set, Mr. Cabral serves on multiple committees for the DGA, including the First Assistant Director Committee, the Chicago Coordinating Committee, the Latino Committee, the Eastern Diversity Steering Committee, and most recently elected as an alternate for the Eastern AD/UPM Council. Mr. Cabral embraces giving back to the film industry in several ways. For over 24 years he has continued to take time to serve as a Volunteer Theater Manager for the Sundance Film Festival. He shares his wisdom and experience by teaching Production Assistant Training Classes, most recently as the Lead Instructor for the Central Illinois Film & TV Production Training Program. He also guest speaks at numerous schools, including Missouri State University, University of Illinois, Northwestern University, Columbia College Chicago, and organizations such as Chicago’s Free Spirit Media, the Spokane Film Project, and the St. Louis Chapter of the Media Communications Association.
