This is Ben Rameaka

An amazing College Humor video I did with Josh Ruben and John Mayer. It was directed by Sam Reich and produced by the amazing people over at College Humor. Anu Valia and Dan De Lorenzo among them. 

Rejected PItches: Citizen Kane. Super funny Frank Hejl. With, as always, myself, Dan Klein and Kelly Hudson.

Rejected Pitches: The Shining.

Big ups to Greg Stees, Kelly Hudon, John Gemberling, and Dan Klein.

Rejected Pitches: E.T. Kelly Hudson, Greg Stees, and Dan Klein do it again.  Scott Rogowsky is also great as Spielberg.

Rejected Pitches: Back To The Future

Did I tell you how proud I am of these videos? Adam Bozarth, Dan Klein, Kelly Hudson, and Greg Stees killing it. Also, 25,000 views. WHAT?!?!?!?

The vast majority of movie pitches are rejected. Even movies that we know and sort of like were most likely rejected at some point, too. This is a webseries about the movie executives who rejected those pitches. I am so honored to be a part of this web series. I love it. I love Dan Klein and Kelly Hudson for letting me be a part of it.

An Onassis Video we shot last fall. It’s amazing. Great writing by Emily Altman Great direction by Seth Reiss and Benjamin Apple, and great DP and editing by Benjamin as well. A quick shout out to all the Target employees that “didn’t see us” when we shot in their store.

An awesome video for Atom.com that Justin Tyler and Alden Ford wrote, shot, produced, and star in. I get to play a cop in it. Just check out my tackling skills! Also, Gilbert Gottfried is in it.

This is a spot I did for Comedy Central and Samsung. The whole shoot was great. They let me improvise a ton and then kept most of it. Hammertoe! Also, I got to use my own blazer.
