Director Biography - Scott David Petill

Scott Petill is an award winning experimental film director of the Avant-garde, a photographer, and an experience designer based in Arizona, USA. He is known for his short films, “Five" (2024) and "Three" (2024), and the music video "Impossible Velocity" (2023) for Trees Inside Out.

“Impossible Velocity” has gained notice globally, including Best Music Video at the Rome Music Video Awards, Vegas Independent Film Awards, and WSXA Barcelona International Awards. Most recently, it was voted the "Audience Choice Award" at Indie Vegas Film Festival.

“Five” has garnered "best of" awards at Indie Vegas Festival, Oniros Film Awards, the Couch Film Festival, and Vegas Independent Film Awards, along with numerous nominations and official selections, including Cannes World Film Festival, APEX Film Awards, Amsterdam Movie Festival, and Vegas Shorts.

“Three” (2024), has won the Best Experimental Short at the New York Arthouse Festival, IndieX, Cal Film Festival, Toronto Indie Shorts and the Stockholm Minimal Intl. Festival.

His films intertwine metaphor and symbolic themes, through rapid context changes supported by immersive audio. Largely free from traditional narrative, these works encourage viewers to make their own connections to complete the cinematic experience.
