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.
