THE WORLD IS IN MOTION
BEN DEWHURST’S PORTFOLIO
About Me
Hi, I’m Ben. I’m a creative director, storyteller, and award-winning writer, director, editor, and producer with more than 16 years of experience across healthcare, corporate communications, real estate technology, nonprofit work, and commercial production.
For nearly a decade at Avant Healthcare, I built and led a digital motion department that grew into a multimillion-dollar profit center. Since then, I have directed creative and communications teams at MRED and MARIS, helping organizations translate complicated ideas into clear, engaging work across video, web, social media, email, presentations, events, and internal communications.
Video remains my first creative language, but my work increasingly connects storytelling, brand strategy, team leadership, and emerging technology. I actively explore tools such as Higgsfield, Runway, ElevenLabs, and Adobe’s generative features while believing strongly that good creative work still depends on human judgment, empathy, collaboration, and taste.
“The World Is in Motion” reflects how I approach the work. Audiences change. Technology changes. The story still has to connect. I consider myself a servant leader, a curious lifelong learner, and a humanist who wants to create work that informs, entertains, and makes a positive difference.
I also believe professionalism and experimentation can coexist. Sometimes the assignment calls for careful restraint. Sometimes, when the situation calls for it, we get a little weird.
