Our CEO

Chris Puterbaugh is the CEO of Cineflight Studios and an accomplished filmmaker whose creative journey has been marked by dedication, versatility, and a hands-on approach. Chris wears many hats, from acting and directing to promoting and editing all of Cineflight’s content, especially on the studio’s YouTube channel. Known for his sharp vision, unyielding work ethic, and natural leadership, Chris stands out as a dynamic presence in the film industry.

His journey began in 2017 when he launched his YouTube channel under the name C Crew Media. With the debut of his first project, Horror Stone, an indie drama horror film, Chris laid the foundation for his filmmaking career. Horror Stone was the first in what would become The Horror Stone Series, a widely successful horror franchise with three sequels. The series quickly gained popularity and became a stepping stone toward Chris’s dreams of becoming a prominent filmmaker. Creating the series alongside his high school friends, Chris found a strong support system that remains by his side today, with those early collaborators actively contributing to Cineflight Studios’ projects and growth.

In 2024, Chris took the next step by rebranding C Crew Media into Cineflight Studios, solidifying the channel’s professional image and broadening its scope. This rebranding signified Chris’s drive to build a national and even global audience, with a clear goal: to make Cineflight Studios a beacon in the entertainment world. With each project, he strives to craft narratives that resonate deeply, aiming to uplift and connect audiences through powerful storytelling.

Chris’s relentless ambition to be a leading figure in the film industry continues to propel him forward. With Cineflight Studios, he envisions a legacy of work that not only entertains but inspires and unites people from all walks of life. His commitment to his craft, along with his strong support network, make him a force in the world of filmmaking, positioning him for lasting impact in the industry.
