Exit’s Ben Lawrence returns to TVC work after his latest feature length documentary ‘Ghosthunter’
Exit director, Ben Lawrence has recently returned to TV commercials after an intensive edit schedule for this latest feature length documentary ‘Ghosthunter’.
A powerful and visually rich film that follows a western Sydney Ghost Hunter, who has spent the last 25 years searching for his absent father. Since 2010, Lawrence and his team have navigated this multi-character story to reveal a complex web of emotionally charged stories, going back several decades.
Ghosthunter is set for official release in 2018 through Madman Entertainment & SBS.
Prior to that in early 2016, Lawrence co-directed the socially impactful 3x1hr ABC documentary series ‘Man Up’, which focuses on Australian men’s mental health and suicide. The series was created in conjunction with the The Movember Foundation and Melbourne University via Cummins&Partner.
