The Team
Isaac Dell: Director & Booth McGowan: Writer
Booth McGowan and Isaac Dell are 20-year-old filmmakers from the Twin Cities. The brothers-from-another-mother have been filming, writing, and devising movies since pre-school. As kids, they filmed and edited dozens of comedic shorts, and have recently formed a partnership in screenwriting and directing.
In high school, Booth received awards for acting, as well as high praise for directing theater. Isaac, meanwhile, built a national following for his band, Why Not, so far touring the country five times. Unable to perform at live shows during the pandemic, Isaac funnelled his creativity into film. During the pandemic, the creative-duo wrote a multitude of feature films and two shorts, producing and directing their first official short-film, I Will Be Back For This (2020, 19 min). Isaac studies film and design at Minneapolis College of Art and Design, and Booth will begin school at Colorado College this fall, where he plans to study English and Film.
