Ben Cooke
Writer and Filmmaker
SCREENWRITING
I love stories, particularly those propelled by the human condition. With strengths in drama and science fiction, I have written a number of feature-length and short screenplays that have received accolades in a variety of international screenwriting competitions.
FILMMAKING
Taking on the roles of writer, director and cinematographer amongst others, I have produced multiple short films that have found success in film festivals both locally and abroad.
JOURNALISM
From high-profile sporting events to people and pop culture, I have had a variety of written and photographic work published both online and in print.
ABOUT
From beginnings as an Australian car mechanic to journalism in Tokyo, I’ll be honest, I may have given up on updating my resume some years ago.
