We’re Bayou Bennett and Daniel Lir—partners
in life and filmmaking—behind Dream Team
Directors. Over the past decade, we’ve directed
award-winning content for brands, music
artists, and changemakers who use their voice
to push the world forward.
We’re especially inspired by Gen Z. They’re
bold, creative, and they care—about justice,
sustainability, and truth. We see ourselves as
visual translators for this generation’s values,
creating stories that reflect their passions and
help ignite meaningful conversations.
Q: Who is The Dream Team
Directors, and what drives your
commitment and passion for Gen Z?
Nova’s song “Change” felt like a cinematic
journey from the start. The lyrics speak to
personal
and
global
transformation—
something that aligns perfectly with our
mission as filmmakers.
We brought her vision to life through a poetic
fashion story, styling Nova in upcycled, eco-
conscious fashion by local designers. Every look
was intentional, reflecting the song’s message
of evolution, beauty, and sustainability. We
placed her in natural landscapes to show the
deep connection between our inner world and
the planet. The result is a film that’s both raw
and uplifting—a perfect blend of sound, style,
and purpose.
One
of
our
most
recent
projects
is
“Connection”, an environmental fashion film
shot across three continents using our Global
Cinema model. It stars Balmain model Berite
Labelle and explores how every choice we
make—whether with fashion, energy, or daily
habits—affects
communities
around
the
world. The film continues to win awards
internationally
and
has
become
conversation-starter
around
eco-activism
through art.
We also had the privilege of helping Michelle
Pfeiffer launch her ingredient-transparent,
clean
fragrance
brand—another
step
in
aligning storytelling with sustainability. Right
now,
we’re
completing
a
new
impact
documentary and preparing for more global
collaborations that spotlight unheard voices
and conscious creatives.
