Ari Bacher is a Toronto based Producer/Editor with a passion for storytelling through reality and lifestyle television.

He most recently was a part of the talented crew at Entertainment Tonight Canada where he produced and edited pieces for both the digital and broadcast teams. Previously, Ari worked as an editor for non-profit organizations, including JCC Toronto and Chai Lifeline.

As a life-long competition reality television fan, Ari was inspired by the cinematography and storytelling of shows like Survivor, Big Brother, and Drag Race, and graduated from the Broadcasting For Television program at Seneca College.

Ari comes from a creative family, and his love for the arts was sparked by the quality time he spent with his grandparents growing up. His grandfather, who was a career professional photographer with Kodak Canada, travelled across North America presenting photographic seminars to novice photographers. Ari quickly was enamoured with photography and videography and spent many hours practicing and learning from his grandfather. His grandmother is an artist and together, she and Ari still have “Paint Dates” when visiting.

Family and community are important to Ari, which is why he considers himself to be a “Community Builder” in the workplace. He values teamwork and the ability to help others problem solve, especially while working together on projects. His positive attitude and passion for television and people, creates a warm and inviting space for those who he collaborates with.
