Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Fred Scott. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.

Hi Fred, thanks for joining us today. What sort of legacy are you hoping to build. What do you think people will say about you after you are gone, what do you hope to be remembered for?

I hope that in the end, people will be able to look at the images I produced and see my voice. See my love for the City and how it influenced my perspectives.

Maybe it might inspire someone to be creative, and that truly would be the ultimate legacy.

Fred, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?

I worked in television post-production, which is the editing and finishing portion. While working as an assistant editor, I learned Photoshop and started designing flyers for parties. I would use photos I would acquire off the Internet, eventually leading to me wanting to take my own photos. I pursued photography and eventually developed and refined my voice.

I capture moods. The lights and street scenes I photograph reflect moods that I connect with.

What do you think is the goal or mission that drives your creative journey?

I think I share a similar mission as most creatives. I want to express my voice, perhaps as a confirmation of my existence. Or maybe it’s because if I don’t, life will seem right around the edges and I won’t feel as good internally.

What’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative in your experience?

When I see the final output, that’s my greatest satisfaction. It’s like raising a child that reaches their potential and appreciating the unique qualities they have to offer.
