Since his earliest adventures with a clunky three-piece VHS camera, Doug Conant has been passionate about filmmaking as an ideal means of sharing his stories. A graduate of the prestigious Brooks Institute of Photography, his film education began at the Los Angeles Valley College Cinema Arts program, where he also studied sociology and psychology. During his time at Brooks Institute, he wrote and directed several short works, including the short film "Broken", earning him the Departmental Award for Excellence. Since then, "Broken" has been an Official Selection at festivals across the country, and has garnered overwhelmingly positive reviews.

After graduating from Brooks Institute in 2005, Doug was hired at Warner Brothers Television, working for veteran production executive Rick Allen, where he was involved in the production of the hit series “Men in Trees” (starring Anne Heche), “One Tree Hill” (starring Chad Michael Murray and Sophia Bush), and the upcoming drama series “Big Shots” (starring Michael Vartan and Dylan McDermott). Now he's moved on to focus entirely on directing and writing, taking from Warner Brothers a collection of invaluable learning experiences and a network of industry professionals.

Influenced by a broad range of directors, including American greats Stone, Spielberg, Mann, Shyamalan, Soderbergh, and international masters Kieslowski, Kurosawa, Weir, Wong Kar-Wai, and Ridley Scott, Conant's films are marked by nuanced performances and a graceful, affecting style of visual storytelling.
