Aris Liang is a filmmaker specializing in producing, cinematography and lighting design based in Boston, Massachusetts and Vancouver, British Columbia. They are currently pursuing their BFA in Media Arts Production at Emerson College. As a queer person and the child of Chinese immigrants, they have a strong interest in stories revolving around identity, self-discovery and intergenerational relationships.

They have worked on over twenty productions in two years at Emerson. Outside of narrative film, they have also worked on independent music videos and corporate projects.

They are currently in pre-production for their BFA thesis film, Baby Bird, which will begin production in January 2025.
