Ben Callaghan.

Cinematographer and editor. On the job since 2011, mostly music and events.

Working cinematographer and editor based in Melbourne since 2011. The bulk of the work is music and events - festivals, tours, brand activations - shooting and cutting under festival-pace deadlines.

Years of festival and tour work, including for partners like Mushroom Creative House and Warner Music. Now on direct briefs as DP, editor or one-man-band - scaling up to a full crew when the production needs it.

Fitzroy. Melbourne.

Day to day I work out of Callaghan Media in Fitzroy. Retainers, brand films and the bigger commercial jobs run from there.

This site is the freelance front door - solo gigs, fast turnarounds, second-camera and post work. Bigger productions and full retainer builds sit under Callaghan Media.
