During that time, he also formed his own production company, producing the documentary film "The Holocaust: Colorado Remembers." With his company, Scott has also won more than thirty national Telly Awards as well as the international Gold WorldMedal from the New York Festivals.
In 2001, he made his national acting debut as Sgt. Tai Lee in the Animal Planet series "Busted."
