The Directors Guild celebrates the craft of directing by showcasing the talent and knowledge of its members through events like the 75th Anniversary Gamechangers, special features in the DGA Quarterly magazine and in-depth interviews in the Visual History program.
75th Anniversary
The DGA has kicked off a year-long celebration of the Guild's 75 years of protecting and extending economic and creative rights of directors and their teams.
The theme of the anniversary year is "Game Changers." Throughout 2011, the DGA will hold events honoring directors whose impact on film and television forever "changed the game" and influenced generations of filmmakers that followed. DGA Quarterly will publish four special anniversary issues focusing on different game-changing periods in DGA history.

DGA Quarterly
DGA Quarterly, formerly DGA Magazine, was launched in the summer of 2005 as a quarterly publication devoted exclusively to the craft of directing as seen by directors and their teams.
It offers more in-depth articles about the issues and interests of our DGA members; expanded profiles of directors and their projects; discussions of new technologies; a deeper look into Guild history and the achievements of our members, and expanded coverage of trends that affect directors and their teams.

Visual History
The DGA Visual History Program provides DGA members, entertainment industry professionals, educators, students and researchers the opportunity to explore the art and craft of film and television production through the career recollections and reflections of directors, assistant directors, unit production managers and stage managers.
By means of in-depth interviews, the collection also offers historical documentation of the evolution of the craft, as well as the history and contributions of the Directors Guild as a social institution for peer interaction, support, and representation of its members' creative concerns.
