Writer, Director and Editor Christopher Sampson is an emerging filmmaker based on the Gold Coast, Australia. Involved in the arts from a young age, he was a member of Adelaide-based youth circus company Cirkidz for twelve years, performing in major productions and countless professional functions. He has been involved in a range of professional creative screen projects, primarily working within post-production. He was the Writer, Director, Editor and Producer of the short films "Drift" (2016) and "Miles" (2017), which premiered as part of the Short Film Corner at the 2017 Cannes Film Festival and FlickerFest 2018, screening at a dozen international festivals. Christopher's roots as a performer imbue his cinematic work, with a clear focus on intimate movements and visceral experiences, always with an innate sense of tone and emotion. Always looking for exciting projects to collaborate and work on, Christopher is in production on his latest short film, Eros, and working towards his debut feature film, a multi-narrative drama film that explores the interconnecting lives of four families.
