Chris Crater
Chris Crater is an Emmy-nominated filmmaker with over two decades of experience crafting cinematic stories for television, luxury brands, and high-end real estate clients. His work has aired on major networks including HBO, CBS, and Discovery ID, where he shaped the look, tone, and storytelling behind nationally recognized programming.
He founded Hollywood East Films — a boutique production company built on a conviction that luxury real estate, lifestyle brands, and luxury companies deserve the same production values as the content their audiences consume on Netflix. Not polished marketing. Films.
Chris brings Emmy-nominated network television discipline to every engagement — whether it's a $4M listing in Rumson, a boutique hotel brand launch, or a luxury lifestyle campaign. The craft doesn't change based on the budget category. The standard is always the same.
Based in Atlantic Highlands, New Jersey, Hollywood East Films serves luxury real estate agents, developers, and brands across Monmouth County, Ocean County, the Jersey Shore, and the full tri-state area.
His production background spans broadcast journalism, documentary, sports television, and branded content — with credits on Survivor, 48 Hours, HBO Real Sports, MLB Network, and On the Case with Paula Zahn. That's not a credential. It's a daily standard.
In a market saturated with content that looks and feels cheap, Hollywood East Films exists to be the answer. Film-level quality. Delivered with the professionalism and discretion that luxury clients expect.

"Luxury real estate and luxury brands share the same problem: the market is saturated with content that looks cheap."
The Mission
