Technology executive, live broadcast television producer, motion graphics director and full-stack developer, based in Los Angeles.

Evan King

Evan King's career spans decades across financial and government backend software development, live television production, motion graphics direction in Cinema 4D and After Effects, web architecture, and telecom engineering. He has appeared on CBS, Fox, NBC and networks worldwide as a technology expert.

He has produced over 1,000 live news press conferences, 150+ podcast episodes and 300+ radio spots, and directed dozens of commercial shoots. He produces the annual Rage for Justice Awards — live concerts with Jackson Browne and Tom Morello — has directed show commercials featuring Jane Fonda, and has worked with Bernie Sanders on multiple occasions.

Beyond motion and media, Evan spent years in financial and government backend software development, which is where the engineering discipline comes from. Whether it is standing up a FreePBX phone system, keying a live broadcast, cutting a spot in Cinema 4D, building a Drupal site from scratch or writing backend Java, the cross-domain fluency comes from decades of doing the work himself.

Direction and camera work for nonprofits includes LINK (Liberation in North Korea), Save the Children, The Anne Frank Foundation, Make Her Beautiful and Dolphin Outreach.
