Chrysovalantis Stamelos
Valantis Stamelos is a filmmaker whose inspirations grow from his exposure to international cinema and world music. On the rise as a director, producer, and writer, he unrelentingly collaborates his love for classic cinema with that of gritty New York City filmmaking.

Paras H. Chaudhari
I never wanted to be a filmmaker. When I was in high school, I always jumped at the opportunity to make a video project in class, but that was because I didn't want to do real work, and I did not consider my obscure video interpretations of classic literature real work. Little did I know, I soon would be a filmmaker, and I still don't consider it real work.
I am a graduate of the School of Information Studies, Syracuse University. I am currently an Associate Producer at IconNicholson, LLC in New York, and co-founder of Crescent Street Films.

Cyndi Ortiz
Cyndi Ortiz graduated from the Newhouse School at Syracuse University and has since worked on-set and in the edit room of various NYC TV and Film productions, including commercials, film shorts and music videos. Her full-time gig is producing promos, but in her free time, helped out with "Aris" by bringing her film background to the martial arts screen.
