Scott George Mosier (born 5 March , 1971 in Washington ) is an American Film Producer , Editor , and cameo actor who has done work in the New Jersey Films . He has also been a close friend to Kevin Smith since they met back in 1992. BIOGRAPHY Meeting Kevin Smith Mosier met Smith at the Vancouver Film School in Canada . Their first assignment, Mae Day , was a student film documentary that fell apart in production. To salvage it, Smith and Mosier interviewed the crew about the demise of the very documentary that they had been attempting to produce. They also added a segment in which the two were shown in silhouette as they described their fictional thoughts. Four months into the eight month program, Kevin Smith decided to drop out, but not before making a deal with Mosier: each would start writing a script of their own, and the one who finished last would help the other with his movie. Working with View Askew In the film in Mallrats . Additionally, his hockey player role on the ladder talking to Willam on the ground, as Kevin Smith describes it, is "the only special effect in ''Clerks''". In Mallrats , Mosier worked in organizing the budget along with Line Producer Laura Greenlee , while presiding over a much larger crew. In the movie, he portrayed Svenning's assistant, Roddy. The character later appeared on a Jay And Silent Bob MTV short. In Chasing Amy , Scott went through hell as he went from a possible $3,000,000 under Miramax 's budget to $250,000 that was given to Kevin by Harvey Weinstein and Bob Weinstein . Even though he was getting swamped with problems as a producer, Mosier was still able to pull off the very memorable Tracer Collecter character. While making Dogma , Mosier worked with Laura Greenlee again. He had a good time producing, but the toughest task was the editing, which lasted nearly a year. He also played the Smooching Seaman that Ben Affleck and Matt Damon meet on the bus. During Jay And Silent Bob Strike Back , Mosier had a much easier time producing, with a budget of $20 million. The editing was once again an arduous task as the MPAA was threatening to give the film the dreaded NC-17 rating. Mosier also played the Assistant Director and reprises the Willam Black character from Clerks . He also reprised the Tracer Collector from Chasing Amy , but it was cut. For Jersey Girl , Scott had a very large budget of $35 million, but less fun due to lack of the usual crew from the previous films. The editing was also arduous, due to the studio's desire to cut down the large amount of Jennifer Lopez / Ben Affleck footage following the poor box-office performance of Gigli . Other work Scott also served as an editor for a few non-Askew related films and ; he also served as a co-executive producer on Good Will Hunting and Big Helium Dog . He also did cameos in ''Drawing Flies'' as the Crying Diaperman, in ''A Better Place'' as Larry and in ''Vulgar'' as Scotty. CURRENT PROJECTS Scott is now producing and editing Clerks II .
