Kenneth Stevenson

Kenneth Stevenson is an American Film & Television Director, Writer, and Producer with a style that fuses Southern Gothicism and Socio-Political Thrillers. Often collaborating alongside lifelong friend Andrew Bennett under the moniker The Versa Brothers-his work with Bennett focuses extensively on truth-seeking. Stevenson's influences stem heavily from the frenetic dialogue of Aaron Sorkin and the world-building, history, and mythology of Ridley Scott, George Lucas, and Damon Lindelof. Important tropes involved in Stevenson's work involve the solemnity of the passage of time, the loyalty that binds family and friends, the relativity of socio-political opinions, the reverence of the elderly, and the struggle of displaced transcendentalists. Stevenson frequently draws from themes present in punk / alternative rock music and Libertarianism (Counter-Culturalism, Self-Reliance, and Desire for Rebellion) to express his frustrations with extremist ideologies. In June of 2018, Stevenson's series Cerebral was recognized at SeriesFest as one of 13 official selections internationally in the Drama category. He has worked for Time Warner, SONY and been the recipient of various local film festival awards. His first feature film out of college was distributed internationally and led to his eventual introduction to television with a series he directed called Rapture-featuring Lew Temple (The Endless, The Walking Dead) and Rob Pralgo (The Vampire Diaries). While in school, his network blossomed from a club into the beginnings of a company due to a scholarship he received from David Letterman. It was at this point he met his two business partners: Co-Director / Producer / Writer Andrew Bennett and Senior Producer Dylan Pieri. A dual entrepreneur and artist at heart, Stevenson now operates Versa Media-- A Creative Development Company focused on original content for dramatic episodics & feature film. In addition, he operates Digital Alliance-a commercial Video Production & Post-Production company supporting agencies & enterprises with Branded Entertainment.
