Evan Cannon - director

"As a filmmaker, I strive to find the story within each project, revealing its truest purpose. Regardless of project type, there is always an underlying message that needs to come through. I excel at finding the heart of that message and translating it effectively, while maintaining visual and thematic cohesion from start to finish.

 I have produced and directed award winning short films, fundraising videos, high-end educational videos, and commercials. I approach each project with an open mind and take great pride in my work, but leave the ego at the door. I am one of many."   - Evan Cannon


With a background in theater, sound design, and painting, Evan moved to Denver in 2004 and began studying film. He has since developed a wide-reaching network of visual artists, cinematographers, editors, and designers while building a reputation as a highly reliable and honest video producer / director.  He is known for both his visual creativity and personability with those in front of and behind the camera.

 

TESTIMONIALS

“It’s rare that I see creative minds the caliber of Evan who also hit their deadlines and budgets, while tightly conveying the critical information needed in a video. He’s a great and reliable colleague and an amazing creative mind. In all the years we worked together, he never let the team down and always delivered inspirational and great work.”

- John Levisay, CEO / Co-founder, Craftsy / Bluprint (NBCUniversal)

“Evan was my partner on a big and boundary-pushing production for our company at the time, and we tackled some complex problems together. This was an original digital series called ‘The Stitch Dimension’, a wacky romp through green screens, major artwork, costumes, puppetry, one-of-a-kind talent, and deep fact checking. The result? Beyond making a super cool show, I found a creative leader who I could trust; who is as resourceful as he is imaginative; and who treated all of us involved with kindness and firm direction. He treated my vision with utmost care and then expanded it exponentially. He also does a badass sheep impression.”

- Lisa Shroyer, Director of Programming, Bluprint (NBCUniversal)

“Evan possesses a crucial quality you want in any producer or director: versatility. Able to adapt his creative approach to any project, I have always been able to trust his vision.”

- Eric Patton, Executive Producer, Bluprint (NBCUniversal)

"We had the great pleasure of working with Evan on a short video that was shown to supporters at the Center for Women’s Health Research annual community luncheon. On very short notice, Evan produced a masterful and brilliant video which clearly conveyed the mission of the Center for Women’s Health Research (CWHR). Evan quickly grasped the complex nature of scientific research and translated it to a heartfelt and understandable message of hope for our supporters."

- Nan Oudet, Program Manager, Center for Women’s Health Research

“We love working with Evan because he always delivers well over 200%. This is both in the amount of time and effort he invests into each of our projects, but also in the care he puts in to the details and working with the talent. Whenever we have timid talent who feels lost in their process, I always elect to bring Evan on because I know he will coach them so that they deliver gold.”

Joshua Kendall, Creative Director & Co-Founder, Sonder Collective

 

“I had the pleasure of working with Evan Cannon on a production for my company a few months ago and it couldn't have been better! From talking me through the stages of scripting to making sure I felt comfortable on camera and using a teleprompter, Evan was there the entire time to guide me in the process. Our production day also ran so smooth and easy because of all the work we had put in together beforehand. If given the opportunity to create more videos in the future I will absolutely work with Evan again. It's a guaranteed success!”

Scott Sueper, L'ANZA, Director of Education

 

       "We held a leadership conference for our employees and asked Evan to produce a              recording of our presenters so we could use the messaging in communications                  throughout the year. He met with us during our planning stages, and was able to              build on the ideas we had for the videos so that we ended up with a product far                greater than what we initially thought was possible. He was easy to work with from          start to finish, which is important in an organization with many priorities to                  manage at all times. Overall, I was thoroughly impressed with his professionalism            and the quality of product he delivered. I will keep him top of mind for all our future        video projects."
