Hello all!

I recently graduated from DePaul University’s MS in Film and Television program this past summer with a concentration in cinematography. I’m open to all aspects of production. I want to make a career out of this and I’m willing to do whatever it to make it happen. I look forward to hearing from you!

My production philosophy – When hour 16 rolls around on set, you can’t hire someone who’s going to start yelling at the PA and chuck a chair because “creative differences”. You need someone you get along with, and I strive to build a working relationship with everyone I collaborate with. The Director and DP relationship will make or break the project, and I work endlessly to make the production happen on time and under budget. I strive to be inclusive of every team member on set, from the lead stylist to the production assistant. I worked at a fast-food restaurant for three days and left it to work full time in film. I didn’t leave that to work on sets without comradery as a unit. I know when to be professional, but I also like to keep things light-hearted when appropriate.

We’re creating art.

That should be a great experience for every crew member.

Ben Senior is an independent filmmaker currently working in Chicago. A student of the Infinity Arts Academy Film Department run by Kevin Lucero Less, Senior has developed a taste for films that seek to ask questions and force the audience to think. He has written and directed over 20 films with the help of IAA, as well as writing and directing several projects of his own. As of Fall 2018, Senior has started production on his first independently produced feature film, titled “The Fall”, with the help of fellow high school students. His dedication to the art form and original perspective make for a talented and provocative filmmaker.

Josh McCausland’s work approaches visual reality from its own unique angle.

As both a videographer and graphic designer, Josh is comfortable reconciling the real with the imagined, and it shows in what he creates. His work is refreshing, and exhibits a cleanliness that is never too removed from humanity.

Healing plays a large part in creation for Josh as “an outward expression for internal struggles.” Art is his way of continuing to exist “as a child in the living room sketching on the floor, with no restrictions and no worries.”

It is this feeling of freedom that Josh’s work truly captures, allowing everyone who interacts with it a much-needed moment of peace in its simple beauty and effortless elegance.

In his pursuits, Josh has completed a BFA at Cumberland University with a major in Entertainment Design and a minor in film studies. He developed his own film company, iQ Flicks during college and now maintains his small business while working full-time for Relativity creating in house video work.
