Zachary Maxwell Shore

Zachary is a writer-director and storyboard artist who has built a reputation for dreaming up bold, genre-smashing animated worlds and then executing them with passion and heart. Having worked with major studios including Pixar, Netflix, Sony Pictures Animation, and DreamWorks Animation, they pair big-studio storytelling discipline with the spirit of an indie filmmaking. Their work blends heart, horror, comedy, and spectacle into concepts that feel as emotionally sincere as they are delightfully unhinged.

At Woodward, Zachary plans to direct an animated proof of concept for their next animated feature film pitch.
