For 20 years, Ian Stevenson has worked in Television (scripted and non-scripted), Film, Commercials and Journalism as Director, Producer, Showrunner, EP and Creator. He is founder/owner of award winning and international production company Bondi Beach Productions. This Film School and Bachelor of Business graduate is based in Los Angeles with his actress wife Katherine Hynes and their two children. This is the story of an Aussie cowboy who rides into the Cannes Film Festival on route to Hollywood... Born and raised in Sydney, Australia, Ian fell in love with photography at age 8 and built a darkroom under the family house. With a drama teacher for a mother, he was destined for a life of creative visual storytelling. But leaving school, the city kid went outback to live the life of a tough Aussie cattle farmer. After several years of rodeos and way too much cow poop, he became a Journalist and then finally returned to his creative roots. Establishing his own production company, Ian's first TV program "Purple Haze" won awards and sold internationally. Next stop was the Cannes Film Festival in France to sell his projects. Since then, Ian has directed, produced and created prime time, number-one rating TV shows; filmed in 20 countries; whilst his TV programs and commercials have aired internationally. His list of shows, clients and employers reads like a "Who's Who"- The Biggest Loser Australia (2006), The Mole (2000), _Bone Detectives (2008 TV Series)_, Battleground Earth: Ludacris vs. Tommy Lee (2008), Discovery Channel, MTV, BSkyB, Coke, Qantas, MasterCard, world-wide agency McCann Erickson, BMG Sony Music and Channels 4 & 5 UK. Ian is a storyteller with a strong visual eye for the frame that tells the story. Sometimes this brings out his inner "Indiana Jones". Ian has climbed to 5000 meters to film while suffering altitude sickness; he's trekked through dangerous rebel-occupied South American jungle to abseil into ancient Myan underwater caves; and shared warm-breath personal space with lions and wild elephants. But he's equally at home shooting a 35mm Commercial on the streets of Buenos Aires. His Director skills draw performances from hosts, actors, reality talent and celebrities, eg, Mel Gibson, Tommy Lee, Ludacris,Isaiah Washington, Tori Spelling, RuPaul. While his journalistic and writing expertise give him a great sense of the story, fast. Whether it's shooting a TV show, Documentary or 35mm Commercial, this former Aussie cowboy always ropes in a high quality result - stunning pictures and engaging entertaining stories.
