Steven
Dieveney
Editor / Sound Designer
Steven spent most of the 90’s producing, directing and editing
children’s and educational titles for CD-ROM delivery. After
winning several awards for titles produced for Scholastic, including
Best Children’s CD-ROM for What’s The Big Idea, Ben Franklin?
based on the life of Ben Franklin and Where Are You Going Christopher
Columbus?, he made a move to focus on higher resolution storytelling.
When Umile, a longtime collaborator and friend approached him with
the idea of Citizen S.O’.B., he immediately agreed to come
on board. In the wake of the 9/11 attack on America and the ensuing
flag waving, Steven saw the opportunity as a chance to learn exactly
what freedom and democracy are all about at the core level. What
a learning, eye-opening experience it was. The chance to spend time
among the disabled community as well as passionate democrats (not
Democrats, rather, members of our wonderful Democracy) was a life-altering
journey.
He recently completed work on Bear Down, a feature-length documentary
on the world of professional bull riding, serving as writer, director
and director of photography.
