Aran Testa
Writer & Director
Hi, I'm Aran! I'm an independent filmmaker from Central Massachusetts. I attended Keene State College and majored in film, with a double concentration in Critical Studies and Film Production. I can't wait to create more after I graduate.
Benjamin Kelly
Assistant Director
My name is Ben Kelly. I am a 22 year old senior is Film Production at Keene State College. My desired career choice is audio engineering for live events and/or videos. As the Assistant Director on Chrysalis I hope to bring the film's audio and visual elements to craft a unique, nostalgic, relatable, and texturally unique film.
Chip MacDonald
Director of Photography
I'm Chip MacDonald, the director of photography on Chrysalis. I am a 21 year old student at Keene State studying film. My favorite hobbies are drinking Dr. Pepper, impersonating an inflatable tube man, and Expressing. I also like long walks on the beach if you’re into that. I cannot wait to bring my visual style to Chrysalis!

William Cribb
Editor
I’m Will Cribb, and I’m Chryalis’s editor. I’m a senior at Keene State working on a film production degree, and have gotten experience in directing, screenwriting, and cinematography in addition to editing. I’ve also gotten experience doing set work on official productions outside of Keene. I look forward to working on Chrysalis and helping to develop its visual style.
Dylan Williams
Production Assistant
Interest in video production wasn't always clear cut for me, the passion and creative spark would only be fully realized in my last months of middle school. My future plans after College are nothing short of ambiguous and I'm hoping to make my mark in the granite state.
