Biography

Chris Hall

Overview

  • Nickname
    • Bearded Madman
  • Height
    5′ 7″ (1.70 m)

Biography

  • Part of a military family, Chris moved from Connecticut to upstate New York, to Indiana, and then finally stopped moving once he came to Delaware. As a child, he was fascinated by movies, and had a huge interest in watching the Star Wars films and attempting to make a film projector to work with cellophane; the idea never worked.

    He completed his first film in 2013, the horror short "Inheritance". After an extended hiatus, Chris returned to filmmaking with the short thriller ":Chat Enabled," in 2024 (completed in 2026), and "Restless" in 2026. He continues to work on filmmaking with his wife and collaborator Nicole Worthley-Hall at Second Life Pictures.

Trademarks

  • Long extremely wide shots
  • GRT Pharmacy for all pharmaceuticals
  • Uses wide angle lenses, as opposed to an anamorphic lens, to achieve a slight distortion in many shots.
  • Films are often dark, and focus on destructive choices made by characters.
  • Often uses real locations rather than using sets.

Trivia

  • Only took one film course throughout college, which he attended for a bachelor's in history, not art.
  • Up until now, all of his films have been self-financed; he often relies on friends and family to lend him the props he needs.
  • In six years, he wrote over 15 feature length screenplays.
  • Uses his life and the lives of his friends and families as inspiration for scripts.
  • Suffers from chronic depression.

Quotes

  • Film-making isn't about getting a lot of money to make a lot of people happy, it's about doing something to make yourself happy.
  • The day I can sit down, watch one of my films, and be completely happy with it is the day I quit making films.
  • People come and go, but art lasts forever...unless it's burned.
