Wes Eastin

Wes Eastin has over 20 years’ experience working in digital video, television, and film production and has received grants and support from groups such as Creative Capital of New York, Flux Projects, and the InLight Richmond Festival. A Georgia native, Wes began working as an electrician, grip, and set technician in Atlanta just after college with the goal to one day be funny for money. For him, that meant writing and directing to tell the kind of stories he wanted to see in the world. Through a geek-chic lens with an eye for comedy, Wes continues to seek out projects that make him smile and sometimes share his lexicon of The Simpsons and Star Trek references with willing team members.

Several art exhibits he’s collaborated on have been featured in such places as the Public Art Review Magazine, the Huffington Post, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, and Art Papers Magazine. These works are held in the permanent collections of the Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia and the Columbus Museum of American Art.
