Evelyn Lee at the American Film Institute Gala Screening

Evelyn Lee is (Writer, Director, Animator) of Kanizsa Hill, an animated film about a head and a body that learn to exist independently from one another while seeking reunification, after the body was shot. Before Evelyn Lee could walk, she was crawling around with crayons in her hands attacking any clean wall she could get to. That passion eventually led her to Cornell University, where she received her BFA. She later decided to burn all her sweaters and head out to California where she received her Masters at CalArts. It was there that she discovered animation and her love for filmmaking. She continues to write and create films while she works as a designer/animator in Los Angeles.
