This is a pic of me having the time of my life on set ;)

Whether writing, directing, producing, or all 3 storytelling is my life. It all began with a Bachelor of Science in Radio, Television, and Film from the University of Texas and working freelance at several studios and production companies all over Texas. The Overman, my UT senior thesis and professional short film debut, won The Accolade Competition Award of Merit and was a Semi- Finalist in The Action/Cut Competition in 2011. That same year I founded San Austin Productions where I've worked with companies like Ferrari, UPS, IFC Channel, Prevention Magazine, WP Engine, and Saatva Luxury Mattress.

Most recently I wrote/directed/produced my feature film debut, the heist thriller NO LOSS // NO GAIN. When not traveling and developing new projects, I suffer from coffee addiction, book hoarding, and Cinephilia.

Hi, there! Christian Rousseau here.
