Chris Quick is a Scottish filmmaker, editor, and producer. Based in Glasgow, he has been involved in numerous film projects for nearly 20 years, gaining recognition for his editing and post-production expertise. In 2009, he co founded Quick Off The Mark Productions with Mark Ferguson. Together they spent seven years providing a variety of different content and even made their very first feature film In Search of La Che which premiered at the Glasgow Film Theatre on the 9th of November 2011. In addition to this, Quick also enjoyed success in the international film festival circuit with short films such as The Greyness of Autumn which marked his directorial debut.

in 2015, Quick launched his own production company Suited Caribou Media and began working on a number of short film projects as a freelance editor. Most notably, he was the editor and producer for the short sci-fi film Electric Faces directed by Johnny Herbin. The film was nominated for the Best Writer (Johnny Herbin) accolade at the 2016 BAFTA Scotland New Talent Awards. In 2020, he returned to the director’s chair to make a sequel to The Greyness of Autumn entitled Autumn Never Dies. The film went on to receive 29 award nominations, winning 16 making it Quick’s most successful project to date and even landed him his first nomination for directing from the Laugh or Die Comedy festival. In 2024, Quick reunited with Johnny Herbin to produce and edit the short film Cakes! (2024) which screened at the 2024 editions of FrightFest, Motelx and the 2025 edition of the London Short Film Festival.
