As his career grew, he then moved on to newsrooms in Ohio (WTOL), Denver (KCNC), and finally Philadelphia (WPHL) where he worked behind the camera as a producer-photojournalist. During his time as a TV journalist, he won regional Emmy awards and two "Photographer of the Year" titles. In 1995, he joined the staff of "News-for-Kids" and spent three seasons producing segments for the Emmy-award winning syndicated children's show.

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."
