Who is Broken Antler
Hello, I'm Ben, also known as Broken Antler.
I'm a multi-award-winning freelance director, designer, and animator with a diverse portfolio of work seen in museums, galleries, events, TV, and cinema worldwide.
My speciality lies in mixed-media, where I blend various disciplines such as graphics, design, animation, illustration, photography, and video to create commercials, events, museum installations, films for brands, or music. I bring my unique, creative vision to every project.
Broken Antler are represented by Dark Energy Films for commercial work
Team Antler
Team Antler consists of Ben and Elaine, who is our senior producer and will be your point of contact if you need us to create your film.
We’re a little like MI (Mission Impossible team). Imagine Elaine is the female version of Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruises character for those who don’t know). She will select a specialist group to support your project, taking the headache away from any production.
Elaine has produced productions, in the UK and overseas. Some examples of the films she’s produced for Broken Antler are: ‘Pakdam Pakdai’ promo for Nickelodeon, Solidus films for MC Saatchi, music videos for Island Records, the Films for HollandGreen, Chalkstreams for The Chiltern Conversation Board and she produced the hugely ambitious film ‘City Of Stories created for the Story Museum in Oxford.

Charity
2024 Charity
This year, we are proud to dedicate our 1% turnover donation to two incredible charities in the loving memory of a dear friend. The Melanoma Fund and Rennie Grove Hospice Care played a vital role in supporting our friend and their family during an incredibly challenging time.
You never truly appreciate the value of such support until you need it—and when you do, it feels like a lifeline.
2023 Charity
This year, Broken Antler donated 1% of our turnover to a chosen charity. Additionally, we contribute through the BIG GIVE, which matches all donations made between November 28th and December 5th, 2023. This means your donation has double the impact.
This year, we have chosen UNSEEN. Every charity endeavours to make a positive impact in the world by supporting the vulnerable. Unseen achieves just that by providing vital support for victims of modern slavery. It's horrifying that this issue exists, and even more alarming is its worsening trend.
Studio Playlist.
One thing that is always on in the studio is music. From playing vinyl to a playlist. Feel free to listen along.
