The Monkey Shoulder

Combining broad skill-bases, The Operators ensure that all work is delivered to the highest creative standards. Ben Le Tourneau and Scott Freeman share a clear vision of what a modern, forward‐thinking, fully integrated content studio should be, and they have handpicked a team of top talent to work with them to achieve these goals. Ben is a filmmaker in the very widest sense and is adept at finding the right creative ideas, strategies, and solutions. Ben’s work is hugely varied and covers everything from directing live-action commercials, stop-frame animations, to online content. Scott has an even more diverse background having worked for over 20 years providing specialist Creative Retouching on high-end Advertising Campaigns. Scott’s knowledge goes beyond color; his expertise extends across all areas of Post-production, image manipulation, CG and VFX/Motion. Their combined passion for film, animation and photography, and their eclectic knowledge of all these mediums, led them to work with brands such as Toyota, Volkswagen and Playstation, as well as agencies all over the world.
