Ben Wiggs

Animation Supervisor

A veteran in the industry with seventeen years of experience, Ben Wiggs has established himself as one of DNEG's most creatively driven and versatile Animation Supervisors.

With credits ranging from high profile blockbusters such as 'Avengers: Endgame', 'Avengers: Infinity War’, ‘Venom’ and 'Wonder Woman', to projects such as Tim Burton’s ‘Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children’ and Gore Verbinski's 'A Cure For Wellness', Ben has supervised animation on a wide range of films, bringing his distinctive flair for visual storytelling.

After starting out in the fast-paced world of TV Commercials in London, and being honored with a VES award for his outstanding work, Ben made the jump to Film VFX by joining DNEG. He has since contributed his animation skills to films such as 'John Carter', 'Les Misérables' and 'Hercules', before becoming Lead Animator on Marvel’s ‘Ant-Man' in 2015.
