I'd hope once I get some stuff done as producer, I could switch over to direct. This is also more for TV. TV is more of a producing medium, with the executive producer (showrunner) generally being the creator and guiding direction for the show. Directors come in to do an episode, but it's ultimately up to the producer. But yes, I would like to be a hyphenate. I think it's hard not to in this day.

I'm curious though, why do you have to choose between producer and director? In my opinion, if you have a good story be the producer, get it written and financed and then direct it. If you don't, then either find a story or find a producer who needs a director. So many people out there are writer-director-producers, why can't you do it too?
