Christina Jean "Chris" Innis is an American film editor and filmmaker. She was awarded the 2010 Academy Award, BAFTA, and A.C.E awards for "Best Film Editing" on the film The Hurt Locker, shared with co-editor, Bob Murawski. She is an elected member of the American Cinema Editors.

Early life

Innis was born and raised in San Diego, California, the daughter of architect Donald Innis and his wife, teacher and floral designer Virginia.

Chris Innis moved to the Bay Area where she graduated from U.C. Berkeley, majoring in film studies. While a student at Cal Berkeley, Innis interned for several San Francisco production companies, including the commercial company owned and operated by cinematographer Ron Eveslage.

Career Highlights

Innis completed post-graduate film studies at The California Institute of the Arts and received a MFA degree in filmmaking. During this time, Innis edited music videos featuring rappers Ice Cube, Onyx and DMX, as well as edited the first music video directed by Jordan Scott (Fine "Industrial is Dead"). Innis also directed and/or produced almost two dozen karaoke videos of hits for Japanese firm Pioneer Electronics.

After a move to Hollywood, Innis worked on several independent films before being asked to work as an apprentice editor on Oliver Stone's JFK. She was mentored for the following six years by editor Pietro Scalia. The two worked on films such as G.I. Jane, The Quick and the Dead, White Man's Burden, and the TV pilot American Gothic.

Innis progressed as an assistant editor, music editor and film editor for cult film director Sam Raimi (known for The Evil Dead series of films and later to become well known for the successful Spider-Man films). Innis was promoted to first assistant editor on Raimi's The Quick and the Dead, which started a long-term working relationship and friendship with Sam Raimi. Innis was then promoted by Raimi to the job of editor on the TV series American Gothic. Innis has since edited several films, including The Hurt Locker, which won six Academy Awards including best picture and best editing.

Innis has worked as a co-producer, writer, and editor with Bob Murawski and Sage Stallone on the distribution of cult horror films for Grindhouse Releasing and Murawski's Box Office Spectaculars distribution companies. She has also worked on the digital restorations of The Big Gundown and The Swimmer.

Personal life

Since 2008, Innis has been married to fellow film editor and film distributor Bob Murawski. The two were first introduced to one another by Sam Raimi and met while both were editing the American Gothic. The couple married shortly after completing work on The Hurt Locker. Her sister is Bay Area artist Cynthia Ona Innis.
