BEN MOLE

A writer and director with award-winning scripted drama, docu-drama, and documentary film and television credits. I have also directed award-winning commercials, promos and short films. 

My focus now is on developing TV drama and feature films, and I am always looking for good scripts, treatments and collaborators.  Please get in touch.
In 2018
I directed the sci-fi 360 VR drama Winter Hill written by the Clarkson Twins for Wildseed Studios and DRG.
My script for the paranormal horror-thriller Darkest Skies was been picked up by one-to-watch producer Susan Simnett at Over The Fence Films.
We're nailed down the final development on my sci fi feature, The Arena. All credit to stellar producer, story-weaver, and creative director, Jesse Cleverly at Wildseed Studios. Bring on the casting and location scouts. 
I have had three stories (more than all other writer / directors) selected for end-of-the-world anthology feature The Impact; produced by Chris Jones. Watch here.
I have been asked back by the super-star show runner and creator, Ahmed Al Baker, to direct a block of eps on his amazing tv sci-fi series Medinah. Featuring Oscar-nominated, Eric Roberts, and sci-fi legend, Natasha Henstridge. There are some Season One teasers here. 
I won Raindance Live Ammunition pitching The First Story, my neanderthals v humans action adventure movie. It's, well, the very first story, upon which all others are based, and explains how humans got that thing we cherish the most -- our humanity.

2017
The Arena -- Feature film development
After an inspiring development period with the super-talented Jesse Cleverly my sci-fi feature film "The Arena" was picked up by Wildseed Studios. Development has been gaining momentum through 2017. We are on target to shoot 2018.​

​Seen No Evil 2 -- Television
Having directed the majority of season one -- which became the highest rating show on Discovery ID with viewing figures consistently in the millions -- I was asked back by Arrow Media in London and Saloon Media in Toronto to direct season 2. American true crime doc-drama for various broadcasters worldwide.
​Action montage
A producer needed a montage of some of my "action directing". I cut this 100 second sizzle reel for them. They liked it.  

 And here are some more leisurely highlights. Again around 100 seconds.
