Evan is a TV/film producer, showrunner, and entrepreneur focused on telling great stories and building iconic brands and franchises. His credits include Sonic Boom (starring the eponymous hedgehog); the breakthrough indie feature Frank & Zed; the BAFTA-winning global phenomenon Lazytown; and a bunch of weird, fun projects for Nintendo. He also consults for select entertainment, media, consumer products, and tech companies on brand identity, content strategy, development, and production and writes about AI for Kidscreen.
Before he became a sleep-deprived indie producer, Evan was EVP of Production and Development at Classic Media (now part of DreamWorks Animation), where he played a key role in growing the company's valuation from $150 million to $320 million in three and a half years, and held various creative leadership positions at Nickelodeon, including TV writer, development executive, and a digital innovation role with a title so ridiculously long that they had to use a noticeably smaller font to fit it onto his business card.
