JOJX Signs Storyteller Ben Tricklebank

Award-winning production house JOJX has added director Ben Tricklebank to its roster of multi-disciplinary talent. Hailing from the UK, Ben has garnered a reputation for creating stunning, cinematic stories, often through the use of innovative technologies, interactive filmmaking, and for his exceptional ability to make complex techniques seem effortless.

With a career that spans numerous successful commercial campaigns, Ben has directed films for some of the world's top brands and agencies, such as Droga5, DDB, BBH, Ogilvy & Mather, and Google, among others. Avoiding a traditional trajectory, Ben got his start in filmmaking after working in music, photography, and design. Ben's innovative and moving work as an artist reflects this background in multiple disciplines. 

Ben has worked with brands such as Delta, Chevy, Chase, Fitbit, Audible, Hennessey, Lexus, Mini Cooper, and PlayStation. His recent campaign, a collaboration with Wild Turkey and actor Matthew McConaughey, was a testament to his expertise in emotive, memorable imagery that stays with its viewers. His work has been recognised with several accolades, including Cannes Lions, D&AD, and The One Show. He won an Emmy Award for his documentary, 'Clouds Over Cuba,' an interactive film commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Cuban Missile Crisis. And his live-action directorial debut, 'Champ,' which challenges toxic masculinity, was under consideration for an Academy Award. 

"Ben's approach to storytelling is truly one-of-a-kind," says Jackson Morton, executive producer and co-founder of JOJX. "His ability to seamlessly blend traditional filmmaking with emerging technologies like interactive media sets him apart as a true innovator in the industry. We're thrilled to welcome him to JOJX and can't wait to see the ground breaking work he'll produce with our team."

"JOJX's approach to creating provocative and meaningful work through forward-thinking talent is what sets us apart from other production studios," says Ben. "They don't just make commercials or videos - they craft stories that have the power to change minds and shift perspectives. I'm honoured to be part of a team that puts purpose and creativity at the forefront of everything they do."
