HELLO!

Animation and film have inspired Ben since the first Pixar movie he saw. While studying animation at Massachusetts College of Art and Design he developed a love for typography and graphic design. Thus began his career in motion graphics, a fusion of the two art forms where his playful style of motion and creative design come together as one.

Ben lives in Manhattan working as creative director at one of NYC’s most renowned post production houses, The Post Crew (formally Crew Cuts). In his 13 years of professional experience he has led teams working for clients such as Netflix, Gatorade, GE, Visa, Perrier, CBS, and Showtime.

To break from long hours at the computer, Ben has biked across America, Europe and South East Asia. Inspiration comes from all parts of life, whether it be riding through the jungle of Thailand or walking his dog in the streets of Manhattan. Storytelling and adventure are integral parts of his work, and living those things are as important to him as being able to show them on the screen.
