Chris Brandt is a multi-faceted film maker living in Los Angeles, earning a living as a storyboard artist and assistant director. He honed his storytelling ability through the writing and drawing of self-published comic books since 1995.

I created the 2003 viral video "Dance, Voldo, Dance", with over half a million views one year prior to the founding of YouTube, garnering the attention of G4, MTV, and Microsoft. It was nominated for the first Machinima Awards, and is used in university classrooms and graduate dissertations.

My award winning 2005 short film CLOSING TIME played in over 24 festivals, including "top ten" festivals like AFI Fest and Seattle Film Festival. It won "Best Short Film" at Northampton Independent Film Festival, and "Best Short Film" at Longbaugh Film Festival.

My 2007 feature documentary COMIC BOOK INDEPENDENTS was distributed on DVD, Netflix, and on VOD through Amazon Prime and iTunes (until 2016, when my distributor closed their doors).
