Evanston,
a native of Lansing, Michigan, graduated from Eastern Michigan University
with a degree in Electronic Media and Film Studies. He then
moved to Los Angeles, where he was offered a position in the publicity department
of Deadly Sin Productions. There, he helped market such alternate independent features
as "Loretta's Ballad", " The Knotted Oak",
"Depot", and "The Lesser of Two Evils".
Evanston's experience at Deadly Sin paved the way for his
true passion... writing and directing his own
films.
He
began co-producing local commercials and a handful of industrials
before partnering with "Dealbreaker" scribe Larry Matteo.
Together Evanston and Matteo wrote and produced a short feature called
"Sacred Ringlets" which won the prestigious Herman Grief Award (for
"ingenuity, imagination and nontraditional filmmaking").
When Matteo went on to produce a series of mock-propaganda
political shorts, Evanston seized the opportunity to write and direct his first solo
project... the
full-length documentary "Silicone Warriors".
Now with
"Penis Enlargement: the Movie!", Evanston can finally
call himself a bonafide documentary filmmaker. Early reviews have
praised the film as "a satirical masterpiece" and "an
immensely entertaining motion picture". With festival dates
scheduled in Atlanta, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles and Toronto, more
accolades and honors are destined to come.
Evanston
moved to Pahrump, Nevada in 2005. He currently resides there with
his wife Francesca and daughter Callie.
