Cabrera was honored at the 2004 Clios Awards by SHOOT as one of the up and coming directors to watch internationally, and was shortlisted at Cannes by CFP-F/shots for the Young Directors Award.
"I'm very proud of the work I did at HKM," said Cabrera, whose recent projects for Mercedes, Ford, Craftsman, and Reina Beer. "At the same time, a director, even this early in a career, needs to evolve, and I can do that best with Savant Film."
"Nelson brings a great sensibility and passion to his work," said Joby Barnhart, who is partnered in Savant with fellow Executive Producer Jamie Miller. "He is a fantastic complement to our roster."
In addition to his spot work, Cabrera is a professional photographer. He is currently at work on Buckaroo, a photographic essay on the American Cowboy to be published in 2008.
"Nelson's accomplishments tell you a lot about who he is as a person," noted Miller. "He is talented and driven. We should add that he's quite likeable, too."
