About Me
Hello there, I’m Ben.
I’m a film-maker and researcher, with a professional interest in the relationship between film and neurodiversity, particularly autism.
Most of my work explores the ways in which the process of film-making can empower, enrich and connect.
I have worked with arts and health organisations, academics and artists to document their projects in rich and insightful ways. I have also recently completed a PhD, investigating how film-making can support the development of autistic children’s social communication skills.
Information about previous projects and testimonials from past clients and collaborators can be found on my Film Projects page.
Examples of my ongoing creative exploration can be found on the Creative Projects page.
If you’d like to find out more about my research, then you can do so on my Research page.
