About Me

Hi there! My name’s Ben Carter, and I’m a filmmaker and photographer based out of North Carolina.

Ben (he/him) began his creative journey at a young age. He discovered his love for the visual arts when he received a used point and shoot camera as a gift when he was six. He made his first short film at just 10 years old, and has been working freelance as a professional photographer since high school. Alongside his filmmaking and photographic pursuits, he nurtures aspirations as a performance artist, video artist, columnist, local historian, and balloon artist!

Recently graduating from the University of North Carolina School of the Arts with a BFA degree in Filmmaking, Ben is eager to step forth into the arts world. At UNCSA, he honed his skills in directing, cinematography, art department, picture editing, and sound mixing and recording, leaving no cinematic stone unturned.

Ben's versatile talents also extend to photography, where he eagerly seizes the opportunity to capture moments that resonate with depth and emotion. His keen eye and willingness to adapt in order to get the job done make him a great fit for those looking to encapsulate their own stories. Ben strives to be a true collaborative, ready to lend his expertise to both filmmaking and photography endeavors, while continuously seeking opportunities to connect with fellow creatives in their shared pursuit of artistic gold.
