A self-described perfectionist, Ben operates a small video production facility in Australia that specializes in the preservation and restoration of vintage analogue and digital video formats, which is fast becoming a race against time.

A pop culture nerd for much longer than has been fashionable, Ben has also been a cinema writer and reviewer for outlets such as DVD.net.au and TweakTown, but now mostly prefers to internalize his criticisms.

Favorite Films:

Star Wars, The Little Mermaid, Back to the Future
