Chris Kroznuski is the founder of Burning Earth Productions. Born and raised in eastern Pennsylvania, Kroznuski grew up with science fiction. For much of his young life, he dreamed of being an astronaut...that is, until he saw the movie Gravity.

​

Kroznuski gained an interest in visual effects around 2008 after playing the video game Star Trek: Bridge Commander and getting in touch with the game's modding community, who had kept the 2001 video game alive by adding their own ships and making it more fun. Kroznuski managed to find the same software used in the development of the game, and started playing around with it; this ultimately triggered his love for creating visual effects.

Kroznuski's visual effects work includes the fan film production Project Potemkin and numerous video clips, demo reels, and tutorials available on the Burning Earth Productions YouTube Channel. He attained his degree in Computer Animation in December of 2016 and is currently developing Earth-Link Origins as his first fully original project.
