Carlos A. Hurtado selected to participate in the 50/50 Honorable Mentorship Program presented by the DGA and AICP's - Commercial Directors Diversity Program (CDDP)
LOS ANGELES - EntSun -- arlos A. Hurtado, a multi award-winning, Mexican American director and filmmaker, has been selected to participate in the 50/50 Honorable Mentorship Program presented by the Commercial Directors Diversity Program (CDDP). The CDDP was born out of the 2014 National Commercial Agreement negotiations between the DGA and Association of Independent Commercial Producers (AICP) with the goal of opening more opportunities for qualified women and people of color to direct commercials.
The aim of the highly selective 50/50 Honorable Mentorship Program is for the directors to receive invaluable professional advice from advertising industry professionals that will inspire them as they continue to advance in the industry. This mentorship program teams 50 emerging directors with 50 commercial industry professionals who review the directors' work and then mentor them, offering advice, guidance, suggestions and possible next steps to move their careers forward.

"This new initiative was created out of a desire to give more opportunities to the incredibly talented pool of women and other under-represented directors that apply to the CDDP each year," noted Tamika Lamison, CDDP executive director. "It's an excruciating process of elimination when there are so many worthy directors. We hope this moves the needle. In addition, we wanted to give a viable avenue of making a difference to people in the commercial industry who has reached out to us with a sincere interest in supporting diversity and inclusion--but more importantly representation and equity."
The directors for this inaugural program were selected from previous CDDP finalists, semi-finalists and by recommendation of the CDDP Advisory Committee.
