What you see on screen is only part of the story. Behind it are custom-built rigs, countless experiments, things that don't always work, and sometimes days spent getting just a few seconds of footage right.
Most of my work begins with something real. I build, film, experiment, and use technology to take it somewhere unexpected.
Macro Room started on my kitchen table in 2016. Today, it's my fully equipped studio in Chiang Mai. Here's a little look behind the curtain.

It's real. That's the trick.
Wait for it… All practical!

About
Hi, I'm Ben.
I've always been curious about the things we don't normally see. A movement too fast to catch. A detail too small to notice. Something ordinary that becomes completely unfamiliar when you look closer.
That curiosity led me to create Macro Room.
I'm a filmmaker and visual artist who loves figuring things out. Building strange rigs, experimenting with materials, and sometimes spending days getting a few seconds of footage just right.
Some films begin with my own curiosity. Others begin with a brand's ambition. I approach both with the same goal: to make something worth seeing.

Let's make
something real.
From product films to ideas that seem impossible, I'm always looking for something interesting to create.
