Biography

Chris Rex was born in Corvallis, Oregon. In 2005, he and childhood friend Cody Burns co-founded a volunteer media organization labeled Spike Industries Studios. The studio saw its start with a handful of small projects, most notably Guadalajara: The Experience (in which Chris played a main role in) and Rex's Prank Calls comedy series. However, disputes among Guadalajara cast members caused the studios to close in 2006. In 2009, Chris Rex rejoined Cody Burns to finish the first volume of Prank Calls, which sparked a restart for Spike Industries. Since then, Chris Rex has played an integral role in many projects, from the finished Guadalajara DVD release to four full Prank Calls volumes. Rex served in the U.S. army from 2009 to 2013, but still held an important role as director and puppet master of Prank Calls in his vacation visits back home. Now residing back in Oregon, Chris saw his biggest project come to life with the DVD release of Prank Calls: 50th Call Anniversary (2014), and continues to assist in future projects for Spike Industries.
