Seth Rigby

After 4 years of learning Engineering at a trade school, Seth decided to pivot towards Film/Video Production, taking the Engineering knowledge along with him. He is involved in most aspects of production, but specializes in post production editing. When he's not on a set or editing, he's often tinkering with new and improvised gadgets to open doors in what is possible in the process of video/movie making.

Ania MacIndewar

Ania graduated Fitchburg State University in May of 2025, with a Major in Film & Video Production and a Minor in Art. Now a founder of False Awakening Productions, Ania is committed to bringing stories to life through visual media. To her there is nothing more fulfilling than pushing filmmaking to its limits and using cinematography to externalize a character’s inner experience.
