About

Ellie Huff is a multi-talented freelance Director, Producer, Designer, Animator, Videographer, and Artist—though she prefers the all-encompassing title: Creator. Currently based in Christchurch, New Zealand, Ellie also maintains deep roots in Colorado and Bozeman, Montana, where she grew up. She holds a BFA in Integrated Lens-Based Media from Montana State University.

With a strong foundation in the outdoor and commercial film industry, Ellie has spent the past several years working alongside athletes and brands, with a passionate focus on amplifying female representation in the outdoor space. She is the founder and director of Novia Productions, a nonprofit production company dedicated to empowering women both in front of and behind the camera.

Ellie’s latest project, “Unwritten,” is her second major ski film, set to premiere nationwide in Fall 2024. The film—currently nominated by iF3—showcases her full creative range: she directed, produced, edited, and animated the entire project.

In addition to her independent work, Ellie has collaborated with renowned creative studios such as Mission Ranch(Bozeman, MT) and Level 1 Productions (Denver, CO). Her background as a competitor in the Freeride World Qualifier circuit gives her a unique and authentic perspective in the world of snowsports storytelling.

Whether she’s behind the lens or crafting visuals across other mediums, Ellie brings her artistry and creative vision to everything she touches.

 

Her goal is simple:
To inspire through creativity and to tell diverse, meaningful stories that leave a lasting impact.

The article highlights the impact of Novia Productions, a nonprofit founded by Ellie Huff to amplify female and non-binary voices in the skiing world through film and community events. What began as Huff’s high school capstone project has grown into a movement showcasing underrepresented skiers and challenging gender norms in the sport, culminating in their second film, Unwritten. Through storytelling, big mountain skiing, and mentorship, Novia has become a platform for creative expression and empowerment, inspiring a new generation of filmmakers and athletes.
