Over a decade of feature-film art direction, now paired with a digital previsualization practice. Chris Fagan designs, blocks, and pressure-tests sequences and sets on screen — so a production knows exactly what it's making, and what it costs, before a single wall goes up.
I'm a designer, art director, and creative technologist who came up through every level of the build — from set designer, to art director, to previz producer on recent feature films. That means I previsualize the way a crew actually works: I know what gets built, what it costs, and where a production can save time and money before the pressure is on.
Years on the floor drawing and detailing sets that got built and shot — the grammar of real construction.
Running the look and the logistics — managing scope, budget, and a department against a shooting schedule.
Leading digital preproduction on recent features — visualizing sequences and worlds before the money is committed.

Delineator Film Lab was founded by Chris Fagan to explore new forms of immersive digital media and cinematic storytelling. Chris is a filmmaker, art director, producer, and creative technologist whose work explores the future of visual storytelling. He has been a professional member of IATSE Local USA 829 for over a decade and has contributed to numerous feature films and television productions, with credited design work for Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, and Disney. He serves on the union's Innovation & Technology Committee, where he helps examine the evolving role of emerging technologies within the film industry.
Chris also consults with technology companies, testing and evaluating next-generation creative tools while helping shape new production workflows. His recent work focuses on digital preproduction, virtual world-building, and innovative methods for large-scale set design and construction planning. Through Delineator, he develops original story-worlds as living, expandable intellectual property — using film as a gateway into larger universes that extend across interactive experiences, spatial storytelling, and emerging forms of digital media.
Additional production PreViz boards and sequence work available on request — some material under NDA.
