BEN KNIGHT (Second Unit Director of Photography)
Ben Knight
Ben Knight headed westward from his home in North Carolina at the age of 17 to follow his dream of documentary work and photojournalism. For 10 years, he worked as the Photo Editor for the Daily Planet in Telluride, Colorado. His still photography, video, and editing skills are entirely self-taught. For years he operated the projector at the Telluride Mountainfilm, soaking in the style of the films that showed from around the globe. In 2008 Knight stood upon the stage at the Mountainfilm Awards to accept the Director’s Choice Award as well as Audience Choice for Best Film for Red Gold. What a journey.
Red Gold, a feature-length documentary, is set at the headwaters of the Kvichak and the Nushagak Rivers in Bristol Bay Alaska: the two largest remaining sockeye salmon runs on the planet. Mining companies Northern Dynasty and Anglo American have proposed to extract what may prove to be the richest deposit of gold and copper in the world. Red Gold is a portrait of a unique way of life that would not exist if the salmon didn't return with Bristol Bay's tide. This film won many awards, including Best Film, Ellensburg Film Festival, Award for Cinematic Vision, Camden International Film Festival, Audience Choice Award for Best Film, Banff Mountain Film Festival, and Director’s Choice for Best Film, Telluride Mountain Film (2007/2008).
