Ben is one of those directors who crashed into the scene in a pretty impressive way, picking up Best New Director at the very first SHOTS Awards. Since then the awards have rolled in snagging titles across some of the most prestigious competitions including Young Directors Awards, Cannes Lions, and very cool directors’ showcases. It’s his way with narratives and drawing out astonishing performances from child actors (and non-actors with that) that sets his work apart. Compelling and emotive with a distinctive style, his work spans a huge range of clients and subject matters. Whether the point is to make us cry or laugh or a bit of both, Ben always delivers. What makes him a Moonwalker? He’s a champ (plus he lets us play golf in his London back garden).
