Production Designer
With five feature film credits as Production Designer to his name, not to mention the immensely popular Netflix series ‘The Last Kingdom’ and commercials for brands including Gucci, L’Oréal, Toyota and MG, Ben’s experience in the art department can truly be said to be rounded. Well liked and well regarded by all who have worked with him, he’s now looking to expand his reach further by designing more features as well as episodic television.

RIDLEY ROAD
Production Designer
"It's been an absolute honour and delight to work with Ben and his team. He had the challenge of creating a period drama within a tight budget, and overseeing a precise rebuild of some iconic TV sets from the 1980s, and he did so with precision, insight, imagination, and a lot of fun, too. The whole show looks gorgeous. It's been a joy."
