I am an Isle of Man-born filmmaker, and a member of BAFTA Connect. Previously a script supervisor, I have now written/directed two award-winning short films, 'PITFALL' and 'Cyn'.My debut feature is now in active development.
“...a talented young filmmaker on the rise...” Mark Kermode, Film Critic
I have crossed paths with Ben on several productions. He is one of the most consistently hard-working and passionately dedicated crew members I have had the pleasure of meeting. Ben's keen eye for detail, in-depth subject knowledge and complete adoration of Film shows in his approach to his work - he would be an asset to any production!
