Early Life and Education
Scott A. Mosier was born in Vancouver, Washington. His father, John Mosier, was a Canadian from Saskatchewan. He spent his early years moving between British Columbia and Washington, acquiring dual Canadian and American citizenship. Mosier’s formal film education began at Vancouver Film School in Canada, where he met Kevin Smith. Their first project was a student film documentary, “Mae Day: The Crumbling of a Documentary” (1992). The documentary fell apart during production. To salvage the project, Smith and Mosier interviewed the crew about the documentary’s failure, creating a meta-commentary on the filmmaking process itself.
Career Beginnings and View Askew Productions
Mosier’s career is strongly linked to Kevin Smith and their production company, View Askew Productions, which he co-founded with Kevin Smith. On Smith’s first feature film, “Clerks” (1994), Mosier recorded the original sound on set, edited the film at RST Video, and contributed to the budget. Mosier also appeared on-screen as multiple characters, including the angry hockey player and Willam Black (Snowball). The film’s budget was notably low, reflecting their independent approach to filmmaking.
For “Mallrats” (1995), Mosier worked in organizing the budget alongside line producer Laura Greenlee. In the film, he portrayed Svenning’s assistant, Roddy. The character later appeared on a Jay and Silent Bob MTV short. Following the success of “Clerks”, Scott Mosier helped secure financing for the film “Mallrats”(1995). Their third film, “Chasing Amy” (1997), was financed by Miramax.
Mosier’s involvement wasn’t limited to producing. He also took on roles in sound editing and acting. For example, in “Clerks,” Mosier handled the sound recording on set, edited the movie, and contributed financially to its production. He also appeared onscreen as the angry hockey player and Willam Black. In the 1999 film “Dogma,” Mosier worked with Greenlee again. He also played the Smooching Seaman. In the 2001 film “Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back,” Mosier worked with a budget of $20 million. In the film, Mosier played the assistant director on the set of the fictional sequel to “Good Will Hunting” and reprised his Willam Black character from Clerks. Mosier had a comparatively larger budget to work with on the film “Jersey Girl,” at $35 million.
Film Production and Editing
Mosier’s work includes editing and producing most of Kevin Smith’s films. His editing work was particularly challenging on “Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back” (2001) due to the MPAA threatening to give the film an NC-17 rating. The budget for this film was approximately $20 million. Mosier was also the producer for “Clerks II” (2006). Mosier served as an executive producer, editor, and actor for Bryan Johnson’s “Vulgar”, an Askew production. He also served as a producer (along with Smith) on “Drawing Flies”, “A Better Place”, and “Clerks: The Animated Series”; he served as a co-executive producer on “Good Will Hunting” and “Big Helium Dog”.
Beyond Smith’s films, Mosier co-executive produced “Good Will Hunting” (1997). He also produced “Zack and Miri Make a Porno” (2008) and produced the short documentary “Salim Baba” (2007), which was nominated for an Academy Award. Filmmakers Tim Sternberg and Francisco Bello received the nomination, as Mosier was unable to be nominated due to a limit of two nominees per short film.
Directorial Debut and Animation
Mosier ventured into directing with Illumination Entertainment’s animated feature “The Grinch” (2018), co-directed with Yarrow Cheney. The film, based on the Dr. Seuss book, was a box office hit, grossing approximately $512 million worldwide. Before directing the Grinch, in 2011, Mosier contributed scripts for several episodes of the animated television series “The Ultimate Spider-Man”. He later co-wrote the screenplay of the animated feature film “Free Birds” (2013).
SModcast and Podcasting Career
Mosier co-hosts the “SModcast” podcast with Kevin Smith. On February 5, 2007, Smith and Scott Mosier began SModcast, a regular comedy podcast. New episodes were initially released each Sunday night/Monday morning, with more recent episodes being released on a much more infrequent schedule. The episodes are generally one hour in length and feature Smith and Mosier discussing current events and other non-sequitur topics. The podcast has since expanded into the SModcast Podcast Network, launched in 2010, which includes multiple shows. The network also spawned its own digital radio station, SModcast Internet Radio (S.I.R), in 2011, and an internet television channel, SModCo Internet Television (S.I.T.), in 2012. While Mosier’s appearances have become less frequent over the years, the podcast remains a significant part of his career and contributes to his Scott Mosier Net Worth.

In addition to film and podcasting, Mosier contributed to the writing of the “Ultimate Spider-Man” cartoon series. On August 10, 2011, Mosier stated on Twitter that he has written some episodes of the Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon on Disney.
