Evan Glodell is an American feature film director, producer, writer, and actor, who directed the indie film Bellflower on a shoestring budget of $17,000.[1] This feature has received positive reviews of 73% on Rotten Tomatoes, and is critically acclaimed by such critics as Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times.[2]

Early life

Glodell was born in Baraboo, Wisconsin and briefly attended the University of Wisconsin Madison before dropping out to pursue a career in film-making.[3]

Career

Prior to the release of Bellflower, Glodell directed, wrote and starred in the Boss of the Glory edgy pseudo-sitcom series that aired on Stim-TV network. He also directed the 2009 music video Let Me Up by Cursive.[4]

Glodell is a principal part of Coatwolf Productions, an assemblage of crew and actors that have been the core of all of Glodell's projects.[5]

Evan will produce and act in the upcoming film Chuck Hank and the San Diego Twins.[6]

Other abilities

A skilled tinkerer, Glodell has made repeated adjustments to what is now called the Coatwolf camera, an assemblage of old camera parts, Russian lenses and the Silicon Imaging SI-1 2K camera. Glodell's cinematographer Joel Hodge was able to achieve a unique look for Bellflower with "amazing colors and amazing in-camera perspective tricks such as tilt-shifting, which allows for one tiny part of the image to remain in focus while the rest is not."[7]

He also built numerous prototypes that became the flamethrower that is central to the plot of Bellflower, as well as working with co-producer and gaffer, Paul Edwardson to make the custom modifications to both cars that co-star in the movie; the flame spitting Medusa and whiskey dispensing Speed Biscuit.[8]
