Christopher Beaton is an LA-based writer/director drawn to genre-blending stories that delight in chaos and the unexpected. A graduate of USC's School of Cinematic Arts (MFA), his thesis film NUMB won Best Dramatic Short at USC's First Look Industry Awards. He co-directed the Warner Bros./USC feature VOODOO MACBETH, which played Heartland, Cleveland, and dozens of other festivals, winning Best of Fest and the Director's Choice Award at Sedona. 

FONTUS is his solo directorial debut — a unique animal, designed to keep the audience off balance and guessing until the final frame.
