Bio:
A comic and a filmmaker, Chris has written and directed many films, shows, and people who were lost looking for the mall. The Sci Fi Channel awarded Chris the "Future of Film" award along with a grant to make more. The Sci Fi Channel also aired his award winning short film SKINS, which The Museum of Television and Radio in New York archived as an “Important Short Film.” He has screened and spoken at various prestigious festivals including Slamdance, HBO’S US Comedy Arts festival, and at Comic-Con in San Diego. His new film Rainbow's End will launch his first DVD compilation entitled Myopic Visions which will be released this Spring by Microcinema International. When not performing for the Improv in Las Vegas and other locations or working on a film, Chris has also worked as a creative comedy consultant for Fremantle Media and Klasky Czupo. Chris also created a Sci Fi drama television show entitled The Nightmare Hunter that is in development with legendary creature creator Stan Winston's production studio. He is also one of the creators of STILL IN SEARCH OF, a comedic remake of the 70’s paranormal investigation show for the SCI FI Channel. He is also the creator of Geeks of Elvenwood, an animated fantasy/comedy series in development with Hyperion Animation Studios. His eclectic film style has been influenced by his favorite artists, including Monty Python, Tim Burton, Igmar Bergman, Terry Gilliam, and Billy Wilder. Chris lives in Los Angeles with his wife (sorry ladies) and 18 month old daughter.
