Hailing from the Bay Area California, Mary Evangelista makes film and video with an emphasis in narrative storytelling. It is not the what that matters in a story (for it's all been told before) but the how. With a desire to make striking films across genres that move people to action and to deep feeling, she co-founded Halfhouse Studio with long-time collaborator Joanne Mony Park while attending UCSD Visual Arts program. They have since made a handful of short films including commissioned work for fashion designer Karolyn Pho and a music video for musician Photay's hit song No Sass.

Coming from a deeper background in audio engineering to using those skills to move into the film and content creation industry, gave me the head start I needed . Throughout the years I've enjoyed the different projects that I was involved in ; from holding a boom mic out of frame for 10 hours, capturing great action photos at sporting events, to sitting down and having a discussion with a neuro-scientist on concussions and releasing it to the world to listen to. I put 110% into what I do and am passionate about the outcome of the final product.
