About Christian Petrozza
Christian Petrozza has been immersed in the industries of film and television straight from the set; In-front-of and behind the camera, both on the crew and in the creative chair. His University study of film history and tactile understanding of the creative processes makes him a multi-faceted writer of franchises he is passionate about like Star Wars, Alien, and Lord of The Rings, to name a few. Christian has also worked for several seasons of the Toronto International Film Festival as well as attended as a delegate for a few, learning and partaking in the machinations of the international film market and studied how the public responds-to and predicts future award winners.
His passion for games, both on console, PC, and tabletop derives from his passion for screenwriting and following games with immersive worlds and narratives like Assassin's Creed, The Elder Scrolls, and Star Wars. He is also a D&D DM who used his writing skills to create a crowdsourced medieval fantasy world on his own stream, which he now plays with viewers, so roll initiative. His early passion for film derived from watching sword and sandal classics and reading medieval folklore, which had him doing archaeology in the UK for a time during university. So yes, he's a big Indy fan and has held one of Indiana Jones' whips.
