About Ben Estabrook

A native of the San Francisco Bay Area, Ben Estabrook specializes in translating dance to the screen. He has directed and shot dance films that have screened at Cinedans, Dance on Camera, Dance Camera West, the San Francisco Dance Film Festival, and other festivals across the globe. During the pandemic, he brought ballet to the screens of dance lovers as the digital content producer at San Francisco Ballet. He is currently a lecturer at Saint Mary's College and has worked as a lecturer at UC Berkeley and the University of Utah, and has given guest lectures and workshops on screendance at Stanford University, Young Artist Platform of Dance in Beijing, Southwest University in Chongqing, Mills College, and Brigham Young University. He is a founding staff member of the San Francisco Dance Film Festival, for which he serves as the technical director. In 2015, he attended the first Symposium for Teachers of Screendance at the American Dance Festival. Additionally, he has participated in dance film workshops with Thierry de Mey and Katrina McPherson. His interest in screendance led him to the University of Utah, where he studied under Ellen Bromberg and graduated with an MFA in Film & Media Arts and a Graduate Certificate in Screendance in 2014. He is thrilled to once again be living in San Francisco where he cheers on the Warriors with his wife and immerses himself in VR in his spare time.
