Action directing
Action Director for Film, TV and Commercials
I'm Chase Armitage, an action director who designs sequences from concept and pre-viz through to second-unit direction — action that carries the story instead of interrupting it.
From concept to camera
I design action around cut and coverage: pre-viz, rehearsal, choreography and second-unit direction, so the edit already works before the camera rolls.
Built on 20+ years in front of the lens
Years of doubling Mark Wahlberg on major studio films, performing on series like House of the Dragon and The Witcher, and parkour stunt coordination on Division 19 mean I know what reads on screen and what's safe to repeat.
A full action team
I work with a world-class team of stunt coordinators, fight designers, stunt performers and stunt drivers, and can train actors in parkour, fight choreography, weapons handling and precision driving before the shoot.
