Hailing from Reading, Ben grew up writing short scripts for his primary school friends to perform in the playground. Years later, Ben has written and/or directed over 30 projects across various platforms, some of which have gone on to win awards at international film festivals. 

​

When he isn't writing & directing with Shoreditch Pictures, Ben works as an Assistant Director - having worked on the likes of Fleabag, Silent Witness, Gangs of London and more recently HBO's The Nevers. 

​

Away from the world of film and television, you can usually find Ben watching (and occasionally even playing) cricket whether that's with a cold pint in hand at Lord's or with his feet up in front of the television.
