Christopher's knowledge of film has made him a walking encyclopedia of all things cinematic. Before graduating with a Bachelor's degree in filmmaking at Capilano University, he successfully studied and worked for over a decade in graphic design and illustration. Inspired by legendary director Peter Greenaway, he applied his passion for visual art theory with his filmmaking aesthetic and love of the horror genre.
Having seen over 7,000 films, his review site, Cinelation, is a labor of love. Essays on various films garnered the attention of fellow reviewers as well as the producers of "Synchedoche, New York" (2008) led to an invitation to participate in a Critics' Round Table discussion of the film in New York City. This was included in the Blu-Ray's Special Features section.
For three years, Christopher has hosted a weekly screening of movies at the Nat and Flora Bosa Centre for Film and Animation. He also introduced the 4K release of Park Chan-wook's "Oldboy" to a full house at the Vancity Theatre. He has been a committed supporter of the Vancouver International Film Festival for over 20 years. He is renowned for his expertise, reliability, and commitment to excellence.
He has directed several short movies including "Socket" (2016) and the award-winning "Siren" (2020), which has played in over 80 film festivals around the world. He is working on producing his first feature.
