Hi, I’m Evan Fischer—an MFA directing graduate and producer/editor focused on telling compelling stories across film, broadcast, and digital media. I’ve combined hands-on production experience with strong editorial skills, from writing and directing newscasts to filming on scene and shaping final packages for broadcast and streaming. Right now, I’m also strengthening customer-facing and team collaboration skills as a bookseller, where I help guests find recommendations, use store systems to locate titles, and support the team with training and on-floor assistance. Previously, I supported academic and media operations through scheduling accuracy and data organization work at Loyola Marymount University, and I produced and edited segments at Gray Television using broadcast workflows and professional editing tools.
