Nearly 20 years in Production
In 2005 Scott traveled to Africa on safari, armed with a JVC camcorder and a bag of beans (to minimize shake while mounted on the top of the safari jeep) to shoot throughout Tanzania. It was during this experience that Scott’s interest for film grew from a hobby used in conjunction with snowboarding and downhill mountain biking, to a potential career path and a life-long passion.
Attending Champlain College in Burlington, Vermont Scott graduated with a degree in filmmaking. While at Champlain College his skill-set grew exponentially as he learned all the essentials of making a film from pre to post production. During his senior year Scott directed the short film Small World that went on to be accepted in the Lewiston Auburn Film Festival.
Scott is now a freelance filmmaker running a video production company just outside Burlington Vermont with experience in directing/shooting full length mini series and short films, action sports content, event coverage and corporate advertising. Although based in New England, Scott Barber Film projects span the globe. Starting in 2015 Scott began shooting the top professional snowboard events (X Games, Natural Selection and Dew Tour) in the USA but has history shooting throughout Europe and New Zealand with professional snowboarder Danny Davis. The year of 2016 also brought Scott the opportunity to direct and shoot for an expedition on Everest while living at Mount Everest Base Camp in Nepal for 5 weeks. Scott has titled this project Sharing Everest, which was an incredible experience producing/directing/shooting a multi crew production in a new country and a remote setting.
Scott Barber Film owns and operates a line of cinema cameras including RED and Sony. Our pride in video production lies in more than just executing a client's concept; it's about breathing life into it through every stage of production. From inception to the final cut, Scott is there every step of the way, ensuring the vision is realized with precision and passion.
Currently Scott works on a wide variety of video production but has a particular interest for projects in the outdoor industry and travel documentation. His goal is to work on exciting projects that document hidden stories from around the world that people will find interesting and inspiring.
