Ian Alexander Levine is a California based Director and Editor. Originally from Vermont, he was raised off-the-grid by nature loving artists at the base of a mountain with goats, beehives and a windmill.
At first, finding his voice through producing experimental hiphop, Ian ultimately fell in love with filmmaking and launched his career in the San Francisco Bay Area where he worked his way up through creative agencies, production companies and high profile projects for brands like Intel, Airbnb, Adobe, Google and Meta.
Some of Ian's recent work includes 'Noted' a five-part docu-series featuring the life and career of Alicia Keys, the SXSW official selection and Catalyst award winning pilot 'This Isn't Me', and The New York Times documentary short 'Into The Labyrinth'.
An experimentalist at heart, Ian's work is defined by its alluring tonality, rhythmic musicality, and imaginative approach to story. Ian is available worldwide.

Four hundred people shared a ship from Lisbon to Puerto Rico for the Earth One Atlantic Crossing.
