Scott duPont was born in New Jersey (also lived in New York) is an award-winning actor with 3 Crystal Reel Awards based in Hollywood. duPont honed his craft in the Florida market being close to Universal Studios Florida & MGM Studios for 15 years working on 100+ short & independent films and TV pilots. In 2005, duPont was elected State President of the Florida Motion Picture & Television Association and to the Board of Directors for Film Florida. He was later elected President of the Florida Cast & Crew Association, and eventually became Chairman of the Florida Alliance of Media & Entertainment. Scott was also a founding member of the United Film & Television Artists. Behind the camera, duPont is a member of the Producers Guild of America & oversees three (3) entertainment companies having produced over a dozen films. One of Scott's unique advantages to having successful film releases is his marketing skills which led him to pursue a Master's degree in Marketing (Webster University) with his thesis project on Film Marketing. This obsession of marketing has proven a great resource to exploit his company's films using creative strategies with smaller P & A budgets to return money to his investors over the years. In between productions, duPont writes columns for several entertainment industry publications including The Director's Chair, Focus In, and ChART magazine & is a regular guest on the radio show Entertainment and the Arts. Making connections & reading hundreds of scripts via the different film organizations he helmed, Scott has optioned and purchased several sought after scripts & valuable properties. In 2007, with the backing of his most loyal film investors, he formed Scott duPont, Inc. to help acquire & develop additional film properties. duPont is now teaming up with existing investors and an investment group out of Miami & New York to raise a new production slate of $25 million to produce & market several films (some of which have been in development over 10 years). The 1st film belonging to this new slate is: "Ticket Trouble" expected to start production in 2017.
