Ben is a multi-faceted director of music videos, content, fiction and commercials who looks for the beauty in the unexpected and strives to give a voice to the outsiders in society.
The son of a DP, Ben’s first foray into filmmaking was at the tender age of 11 when he borrowed his dad’s VHS camera to make a film about heroin addiction, guns, gangsters… and swords.
Ben then headed up to Edinburgh to study History of Art but his curious mind and thirst for creativity saw him spend more time crafting visuals for Madness tours and putting on old-skool club nights in London than getting his head buried in books and flavouring the local haggis.
Since then Ben has made commercials for Nike, Samsonite, Lexus, Nissan, Apple, Adidas, BMW, LG and ALLSAINTS and music videos for Naughty Boy, Phoenix, Animal Kingdom, Clock Opera and The Kills.
