From 1990 to 2018, Chris Hennessy dominated the San Francisco Bay Area's independent filmmaking scene, marketing, selling, and producing over 1,500 professional projects for clients, including Google, eBay, the SF 49ers, Deloitte, Office Max, and The American Cancer Society. His digital content has garnered more than 8 million views across various platforms. 

 

After retiring from professional filmmaking in 2018, Hennessy launched his television series "Yolo YoYo's," which won Sacramento's Best New TV Cable Series (2019). The show attracted 125,000 Facebook views (TV stats unavailable), aired four segments on CBS's GoodDay Sacramento, and generated multiple newspaper articles written by Hennessy.

 

The series' season two premiere, "Miracles on College Street"—produced to promote his forthcoming memoir, "Touched by Hannah,"—won the prestigious 'Film Heals' award (most inspirational) at the 2022 Manhattan Film Festival and was runner-up for 'Best Narrative Episode West Coast' at the 2022 ACM Western Region WAVE Cable TV Awards.

​

"Working my tail off on those 1500+ professional video-film gigs made me the confident producer, director, and storyteller I am today.

​

Chris no longer takes on new clients. In late 2018, Hennessy retired from corporate and social filmmaking to pursue his dreams of crafting his own creative projects.
