Kevin Jin Kwan Kim is a Korean-Canadian director and editor based in "Vancouver, BC," the unceded territory of the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh nations.
With a background in editing, his work sustains a distinct sense of rhythm while capturing emotions by finding the most powerful connections between shots. He values the length of every shot and has been recognized for his ability to tell intimate, relatable stories in a short span of time. He cherishes collaboration in his work and aspires to raise the voices of those in the BIPOC community.
His series of micro-shorts about his heritage including What Did They Say?, Daniel "Jun Ho" Lee and Halmeoni received viral attention as they gained over 30-million collective views across various social media platforms and has been recognized at the YDA in Cannes, Webby Awards, Shots, CBC and more. His short film Sun, Moon and Four Peaks premiered at the Vancouver International Film Festival and won Grand Prix RPCE at the Oscar-qualifying Festival du Nouveau Cinema.
Kevin is currently in development of his debut feature film, My Dad, the Rockstar.
He's also a little shy at first glance but loosens up easily with some sweets.
