Stephane Suetos Scupham has been working in film, television and video for 15 years. She first attended Bradley University for Voice and Theatre and graduated from University of Kansas in Film Studies. She didn't go far from home when she created her own television show in Lawrence, Kansas called Guided by Flavor. It was during that time that she worked behind camera as producer, director, and editor. For other shows and commercials, she operated live teleprompter, live audio mixing, and camera operating as well as performances in front of the camera and in the sound booth. Knowing both sides of production as well as being a former talent agent gives her a thorough perspective on the industry. Steph has performed in commercials and videos across the country. She most recently co-hosted, Uniquely Kansas City, a PBS series with Randy Mason on KCPT and continues to co-host pledge nights for the station. Currently, Steph now works for award-winning t2 Studios as Senior Account Manager, making TV, video and experiential design.

Val Anderson has a degree in Journalism/Radio & TV from Kansas State University, and has been producing and shooting videos since 1998. Not only has Val worked behind the camera shooting for hundreds of concerts and sporting events, she has produced a variety of projects including educational programs, commercials, documentaries and music videos. Val produced "No Shortcuts: The Entrepreneurial Life of Henry Bloch," a one-hour documentary produced in conjunction with the UMKC Henry W. Bloch School of Management. She also served as post-production supervisor on Let Freedom Ring, a two-part series on WWII veterans which aired in over 90 markets on Public Television. Working in the KC area for her entire career, Val has established great relationships with local crews, freelancers and resources. Her favorite part of the job is the constantly changing subject matter. This often includes travel, which is at the top of Val’s production job perks. She especially enjoys the opportunity to visit locations that wouldn’t normally make it on her vacation list. These excursions often provide unexpected adventures, fun stories and great memories. Val joined Outpost Worldwide in 2006 and is now the lead in-house producer. She previously worked at Opus Communications and Paddock Productions.
