Growing up In New York City, Ben has been surrounded by film sets and film history his entire life. Ben Freedman attended High School of Art and Design in New York City majoring in film.

Ben uses the medium of film as a platform to illustrate his creativity and to put to canvas his experience with Chromesthesia, a condition that links sounds and colors as one. The importance of sound and color are always on the forefront in his work as well as techniques and styles learned from a eclectic knowledge of film history. Ben makes short films but one day aims to make features for the big screen. His work can be seen on his website and at film festivals programming student work in NYC. He's had professional experience working at the Museum of the Moving Image
