ABOUT THE OWNER
Mark Bettencourt - Producer, Editor
mark@harborscapestudios.com
After graduating from the SI Newhouse School of Communications at Syracuse University, I spent 8 years working in Los Angeles producing television. You may have seen my work on shows like 'Big Brother’, 'The Biggest Loser’, and ‘Hell’s Kitchen' where I produced the physical and mental challenges contestants faced each week.
These days I work remotely from Southern New England with clients ranging from international video production agencies to individual podcast creators. They come to me when they want a dedicated storytelling specialist who’s going to deliver content that entertains, informs and evokes an emotional attraction to their brand. I’ve always believed that storytelling is our greatest form of communication and I’m here to help you tell yours.
When I’m not in front of my computer editing something, I’m exploring a national park with my camera, obsessing over independent films or I'm in the kitchen pretending I could be a professional chef.
Featured Work
These are just a handful of selections to demonstrate my work from the past few years. If you’d like additional samples, please reach out to mark@haborscapestudios.com.
