Chris Ryan is known for his expansive knowledge of film and pop culture and his ability to converse in visual references with his collaborators to develop imaginative looks for commercials, television, film, and the web. He has aided directors across all mediums, and worked with the Criterion Collection to preserve classics such as 8 ½, Gimme Shelter and Richard III.
