Need some help?
Are you launching a new podcast or show on a digital platform and need someone to produce it?

Are you eager to grow a personal or branded channel on social and don’t really know how to make it happen?
Hi 👋 I’m Ben and I can help with all of those things.
Previously in-house at Troika, YMU Group, and Yahoo, I work closely with businesses, production companies and individuals (especially on-screen talent), to create podcasts and digital shows for social media platforms. I don’t love the word “content”, it’s more like making TV for the internet.
In evenings, weekends and assorted public holidays, I’m also a successful writer and filmmaker, an alum of both All3Media’s New Writers Collective and Sky’s shortFLIX,with several of my shorts screening at BAFTA-qualifying film festivals all over the world, with backing from Creative UK and the National Youth Theatre.
I run everything out of my little office in Bath, dropping into London and Bristol on the regular, and love particularly mad horror films. But that last bit isn’t really important.
I have over 10 years of experience in digital media, working in small agencies, large organisations, and as a solo freelancer.
A bit about who I am…
…and here’s some of my work.
My work for TikTok, Reels, YouTube and beyond have amassed over 200 million views since 2021, covering everything from viral stand-up clips, to long-form unscripted drama and promo for huge names like CBBC.
Working with Yahoo, I produced 10 months worth of content for their hit chat-show podcast White Wine Question Time with host Kate Thornton, shepherding the show to 120,000 monthly listens and over 3 milion total listens.
I’m currently producing and editing across a slate of digital originals with a big interest in re-shaping TV formats for online and social. The first of which was Supervet ER, with 20 episodes gathering over 25 million views across YouTube and socials.
And just for fun, here are my films…
