Tredd Smith
I am a 27 year old award-winning filmmaker and photographer with an immense passion for the ocean, wildlife, and all things nature. I have been freelancing around the world for over 10 years, but the majority of my work takes place in my home-state of New York.
​
I am a graduate from Hofstra University with a B.A. in Film Studies and Production.
​
As an outdoor enthusiast and an extensive animal-lover, my heart resides in documentary filmmaking.
I am proficient with all DSLR cameras (above and below water), digital cinema cameras, drone operation, Super8 film, lighting & set design, video/photo editing, sound mixing/design, and color correction.

In 2022, I was very honored to win The Inertia's Film and Photo Challenge with my short profile film called DRAWN. This film documents my friend Alexandre Carrier and his passion for shark diving, as well as his experiences with these animals, and the way in which he managed to successfully turn this passion into a business.
