About
I'm Ben, a Los Angeles video production specialist with 10+ years of experience and a BFA in Film Production from Emerson College. I produce commercials, brand videos, interviews and testimonials, and event coverage for businesses of all sizes, from local companies to global brands. I handle the full process, from planning and filming through editing and delivery, and I'm especially good at helping people who are nervous on camera come across naturally. I also offer same-day edits for conferences and live events, so content can go out while the event is still happening. See the FAQ below for pricing.

Ben did an incredible job supporting our shot. His crew was on top of the shot selection and execution throughout the day. He stuck to a tight schedule.

We hired BBG to create video content for our dental office, and the experience exceeded our expectations from start to finish.From our first conversation, Ben took the time to truly understand our goals and what we wanted patients to feel, and what made our practice different. That preparation showed in the final product.What really stood out was how he handled everything. We didn't have to worry about a single detail. He managed the entire process and, perhaps most impressively, guided our team through their on-camera interviews with such ease that the testimonials came out genuine and compelling (even from staff who were nervous in front of the camera).Professional, organized, and incredibly skilled at bringing out the best in people. We couldn't be happier with the results and would highly recommend him to any business/client looking to elevate their video presence.

We had a strict timeline and budget for a video ad. Ben was responsive, professional, and creative! We will definitely be using Ben again in the future!

Ben was a joy to work with! We shot a music video at the beach. He arrived early to scope out the location, and he was also able to bring a drone cameraperson for extra shots. Ben is flexible, and creative - he added so much to the project - and even in the wind he had great solutions, and he worked beautifully with the talent. We actually finished ahead of schedule, and the footage is amazing! We will definitely work with Ben again.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Thanks for checking out my profile. Here's how my pricing works so you know what to expect up front.
Filming in Los Angeles is $100/hr with a six-hour minimum. My rate includes a full Sony cinema camera package, lenses, tripod, lighting, audio, and a teleprompter.
Editing is billed separately at $100/hr or $800 per full editing day. Most projects, including filming and editing, land between $1,500 and $3,000. Standard turnaround is about two weeks, and one-week turnaround is available for at cost.
For shoots more than 35 miles from Los Angeles, mileage is billed at $0.725 per mile. Travel jobs farther out are quoted at $1,000 to $2,000 per day, plus a hotel and a $60/day per diem when the schedule calls for it.
For ongoing monthly work, I offer discounted rates with a 3-month minimum.
Send me a few details about your project and I'll put together a quote that fits your needs.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I start by learning about your goals, timeline, budget, and creative needs so I can recommend the right approach. From there, I provide a clear quote and keep the process organized and straightforward from filming through final delivery.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I earned my BFA in Film Production from Emerson College. I also have over 10 years of hands-on experience in commercial, corporate, and film production.
