After one fateful afternoon of making his toy trains battle each other when he was seven, Ben knew that he wanted to work in entertainment. Cut forward to today, and Ben can often be found making movies, performing with his improv team, and staying up late to create memes so obscure that only his friends will understand them. With dreams of becoming a television showrunner, Ben hopes that his romantic comedy senior capstone film will be something that all audiences can relate to and enjoy.
Aaron Cargile makes films that explore obscure and untold stories from the edges of American culture. His latest project, Ochre, will hopefully become the first of many feature films.
