Steven Callas smile

Meet Steven

Steven Callas is a Greek-American producer and production manager that hails from Chicago, IL. A graduate of DePaul University in both Marketing and Cinema, he helps bring cinematic style and storytelling to both scripted and unscripted features, television shows, and commercials.

Never afraid of getting his hands dirty, Steven enjoys being on the ground in the heat of the action. Whether it be trudging through seven feet of snow to film snow groomers on Mount Ashland or driving hours away from civilization on dirt paths to capture the Maasai people in Kenya, he has developed a reputation of delivering incredible results both on time and on budget. He has yet to work with a client that didn't offer their highest praise and recommendation.

Steven currently splits his time between Los Angeles and Chicago where he uses his background in hospitality, marketing, and journalism to bring added insight and knowledge to the high-risk, low-margin industry of Hollywood.
