Ben trained at Bournemouth Film School having been motivated by wanting to do something a little bit cooler than play in a brass band and run a mobile disco.
In 1998, his prowess at mixing more than a decent cup of tea was recognised by Gemini Audio, and there began his love of documentaries. In 2001 he became a freelance dubbing mixer and relocated to Holland where he worked within the Dutch film and television industry before returning back home in 2004.
Having freelanced at Clear Cut for many years, Ben became a full time member of staff here in 2009.
"Post production at Clearcut was an education in how all post production should be done. Ben Newth, our dubbing mixer, went above and beyond the call of duty in accommodating our changing schedule and did an incredible job with the sound. His attention to detail was second to none and his audio fixes were always perfect. He was uncomplaining, always amiable and lovely to work with. I would always choose to come back to Clearcut in the future."
