Andy Nick and Brian Ward - Designers/Animators at Real Art Design Group

Ben Nicholson, Creative Director/Designer/Animator at Lightborne

Since Joining Lightborne in 2000, Ben has overseen the development of a once one-man motion design department into a fully staffed global creative force. Ben has directed and animated both live-action and animated national Ad campaigns, music videos and tour visuals. At Lightborne, Ben is the dreamer and the technical limit pusher who is always looking for a new way to not only execute motion design but also to display it. This want comes from years of prior experience working on media for Disney rides, robotic projection screens, and just about every other surface where video should not be seen. Creative collaboration is the fuel for his fire and he loves helping clients execute, grow and implement their vision.

When Ben is not working, he is gardening with his beautiful wife and helping love and wrangle his three children. You can often find him in the kitchen cooking meals for his friends.

With 12 years of experience in the motion design world, Ben brings a technical and artistic eye that only time and experience can bring and continues to love making the impossible possible.
