I’m Ben Phoenix — a Producer/Director and Lighting Camera creative with nearly 20 years of experience across film, TV, commercial, and online content. I’ve spent my career exploring the intersection of storytelling and technology, working on everything from feature films and broadcast television to live events, virtual production, and innovative online entertainment.

I’m best known for producing Cinderella Live in 2020, the world’s first live, online, and interactive pantomime – a groundbreaking virtual production enjoyed by audiences around the globe. Today I run NEXI Media Ltd, where I specialise in high-quality video production, livestreaming, and interactive digital experiences, helping clients bring ambitious ideas to life in compelling and creative ways.

Alongside my production work, I’ve founded and run multiple film networks, taught filmmaking to young people, and collaborated with brands, broadcasters, and filmmakers across the UK. Whether I’m behind the camera, directing on set, or designing an interactive show, I’m driven by one thing: creating memorable stories that connect people.
