Summer 2007 Seth is a graduate of Hampshire College, a leader in
alternative education, receiving his B.A. in Media Arts in 2000. On
campus he created and produced the very popular college network show
'CTV,' as well as worked with, and received a grant from, The Lemelson
National Program for Innovation, Entrepreneurship and Creativity, now
headquartered at MIT. Seth is the only artist to ever receive a grant
from this program. He also received the very prestigious Cooper Hewitt
Best of Design Award, from the Cooper Hewitt Museum and Smithsonian
Institute. This is the highest design award given scholastically in the
Untied Sates. Seth wrote his first feature script 'SpeakEasy' as his
senior project. Seth moved to Los Angeles in 2006 to pursue his
Hollywood dreams. In the year since arriving, he has been a busy man.
He served as Line Producer on the reality-competition show 'Setup' for
Speed (Fox Sports), as well as Senior Production Manager on the
reality-competition show 'Bullrun' for Spike. Before working in
Reality, Seth independently produced a national thirty-second spot for
Doritos with Jed James, now the EP for Fallout Films/Fallout
Entertainment, and Directors Brett Snider and Billy Federighi, and
independently produced a music video for the LA based band Dirty Little
Secret, again with Jed James and with Director Bradley Kettlety, now
working for Anonymous Content. Seth has also produced many other music
videos this year: independently, for Fallout, and most recently
providing production services for the French company 5th Dimension.
This final project was for one of France's top Hip-Hop artists, Passi.
Previously Seth lived and worked in the NYC production world for six years. During that time he held a staff position at historic Kaufman Astoria Studios, working on projects ranging from the first Strokes music video, with director Roman Coppola, to 'Crossing Over with John Edward,' the BBC's 'Top of the Pops' and Paramount Pictures/DreamWorks SKG feature film 'The Stepford Wives'. During this time Seth also worked in production on feature films ('Speak,' 'Petty Crimes'), produced commercials (including one for Asian Telecommunications powerhouse NTT-DoCoMo, with DCA Advertising/Densu Corp.), events (including ones for Canon USA and Aventis), short films, many which received festival attention ('Semmelweis,' 'Red Letters,' 'The Balloonist,' more), and the 'Big Brother' -like Russian Reality show, set in Manhattan, 'Golod.' Many of these projects were completed under the GoPicture Productions banner, the company Seth owned and operated with partner Matthew Fabiano. New York also saw Seth working in the professional art world, collaborating with emerging installation artist Justin Lowe. Seth is most proud of his strong international production contacts and relationships, ranging from Russia, France, and the UK, to Brazil and Japan, as well as his network of young creative talent.
Currently Seth is developing numerous non-scripted television concepts with various LA based producers and production outfits, as well as an exciting slate of Feature Films including an adaptation of 'Albatross on Deck' by Drew C. Dalton, which he co-wrote. In his spare time Seth is developing New Media projects, writing his third feature ('The Extraordinary Adventures of The Boy and Jack'), attending UCLA Extension in Business and Entertainment, and enjoys reading about String Theory.
