Career

Evan Breen is an American comedic artist and Social media personality. He gained popularity mostly as a "Vine Star" and is now a popular 'Instagram' star. Evan gained over a million followers on Vine before the application was shut down. Evan currently posts his comedic content on his YouTube channel and Instagram page.

Evan's career started in 2011 when he was still in university.

At that time, he would create content for Twitter. He later on lost interest in the application and decided to quit. Evan worked as a transporter at 'Beaumont Hospital' in Royal Oak, Michigan for some time. In his final semester, Evan moved on to 'Vine.'

He was inspired by the comedian Chris D’Elia and decided to become a "Viner."

Evan was in his final year when he dropped out of university to make a career on Vine. At first, he had a tough time with his content. His comic timing was poor and his sketches were not too funny. However, Evan began working on his weak points.

With the help of the comedian Pete Holmes, Evan’s comedy skills improved a whole lot. Evan also had a friend from college who was really supportive of his unusual career choice and despite his poor content, she always encouraged him to do better.

Soon after, Evan got back on Vine with more polished skills and content, and the viewers liked this. In addition, sketch-comedy and improvisational comedy groups such as 'Upright Citizens Brigade,' 'The Groundlings,' and 'Second City' inspired him a lot.

His change was a turning point in his career.

His different characters, offbeat jokes, observational humor, and his magnetic personality made changes to his 'Vine' career and he earned 70 thousand followers on 'Vine' and was approached by a Los Angeles based YouTube and 'Vine' network. He accepted the offer but not completely, cause he had never been interested in the advertisement field. However, this offer later proved beneficial to his career.

Evan’s 'Vine' career gained momentum soon after.

He earned more than a million followers on his'Vine' account before the application was taken down.

Following this, Evan turned toward YouTube which gave him more artistic freedom.

Evan now posts his content on his 'YouTube' channel and Instagram profile. The channel has over 465 thousand subscribers, while his 'Instagram' posts have earned over 371 thousand followers. Evan is still active on 'Twitter,' where he started his career, and has racked up more than 312 thousand followers.
