Scott Reeder (born 1970) is an American artist and filmmaker best known for creating ZeroTV.com with filmmaker Chris Smith (American Movie) in 1999, as well as helping to instigate the Milwaukee-based art collective known as Milhaus.

Primarily a painter, Scott Reeder moved to Milwaukee via Chicago and Los Angeles to start ZeroTV, an early interactive website. His paintings and installations with ghost-like figures are intended to be spoofs of art-world conventions. His fabrication of everyday objects are intended to blur the boundaries between art and craft, design and Minimalist sculpture.[1] Reeder is also known for his work in which he invites participants to imagine physical works of art which have never been created. Best known of which is entitled "It's cold in here" which challenges viewers to imagine a frozen poo falconer standing in a walk-in cooler standing on a vibrating steel plate as if shivering.

Reeder and his former roommate, Donald Morgan were the inspiration for the characters of Forky and Socky in Randall Pants' video Blame it on Cancun.

Reeder is currently in post-production on his first feature film, Moon Dust, due out in late 2010 or early 2011.
