Sareth Ney is a first generation Cambodian-American, award winning short filmmaker, DJ, fashion designer, festival director, journalist/superhero, philanthropist, stand-up comedian, and storyteller.

"Sareth has an extremely creative mind and works well with all personality types. I knew I could rely on him to complete any assignment." - Professor/Chair Leticia Steffen
Prior to finishing Ney’s junior semester at Colorado State University-Pueblo—he read a book, “Mister B. Gone”, by Clive Barker (“Hellraiser”, “Candyman”). Ney reached out to Barker for an internship and was invited to Los Angeles, to interview for the position. After being asked three questions by Barker, Ney became Barker’s intern. Ney had to wait a year and write Barker weekly.

Within the year of waiting for Barker’s internship to start, Ney and friends participated in the first Pueblo 24 Hour Film Festival. Their short film, “The Narcoleptics”, was made in 12 hours and on a $25 budget. It won the award for “Best Film To Watch While Stoned”.

In the summer of 2009, Ney began his summer internship with Barker. His intentions were to become a future master of horror and have his name featured on one major motion picture. On June 4, 2009—Barker sent a tweet which would launch Ney’s writing career. It read, “The Requiem:  Sareth is a gentleman, and much loved in my household. I hold him in the highest regard.” Unsure how to reach the bar Barker set for Ney, he continued his summer internship to find himself in Los Angeles.

TheRequiem:Sareth is a gentleman,and much loved in my household.I hold him in the highest regard.

— Clive Barker (@RealCliveBarker) June 5, 2009
During the last week of Ney’s internship, he managed to bring up RZA (Wu-Tang Clan, Gravediggaz) to the studio. His goal was to introduce Barker to RZA and have them collaborate on a project. What transpired was RZA and Ney having a three hour conversation, through the visit.

After RZA left Barker’s studio with his entourage, Ney finished reorganizing Barker’s library. Barker met up with Ney and asked if he would return as his apprentice. He agreed because he felt he needed more knowledge. When he graduated from college—he moved out to Los Angeles and became a Wu-Tang Clan inspired superhero, Wu-Man Chu.

Barker made Ney's Hollywood dream come true. After the original set of end credits, Barker gave Ney a special thanks nod at the end of “Nightbreed:  The Director’s Cut” (2014).  Ney's name could be seen under Quentin Tarantino’s theater, New Beverly Cinema.
Picture
Through Ney’s news articles and Pueblo’s Independent Multimedia Podcast—he provided publicity for Pueblo, Colorado’s performing arts. Since 2014, they honored him with a festival called “Sareth-Fest Music and Comedy Festival” and vice versa. Sareth-Fest originated as a film festival at Barker's studio. 
"We all love Sareth and everything that he puts together; you know all the reviews for all the bands and comedians." (15:05)

Ney volunteered to be The Widowhood Effect’s manager, booking agent and publicist. It was after he booked them at another venue because they were rained out on at some other establishment’s patio. He was able to get them to record a three song demo in seven days and assisted in filming their music video, “One Last Cigarette”. He landed gigs, setup a west coast tour, arranged an interview with a radio station and radio play on others.

​As a stand-up comedian, Ney went from being an open mic comic to a festival appearance. His first showcase followed and was his roast.
 “He’s definitely one of the most unique people I’ve ever met.
That got me thinking about what it means to be unique and
that got me thinking that maybe just no one else wanted to choose to be that way.
That makes the most sense.” (3:54)
"He's shaken up local entertainment, music, comedy. 
He is an innovative thinker in an age that desperately, ​desperately needs them." (44:13) 
- Charley McMullen, Las Vegas stand-up comic

“There’s a lot of people out there that don’t know how to live their own lives, so they don’t want you to live yours either. Sareth isn’t one of those people. Sareth is a anything’s possible type of mother [expletive] and I love that about him.” (18:30)
- John Brown, Pueblo, Colo. stand-up comic

"He's done a lot of [expletive] for us, you know? He wrote some articles. Put us on what the [expletive] Examiner and all that [expletive]... That's good [expletive] for us. We don't get to do none of that [expletive]." (24:24)
"He publicizes that [expletive] for us. That's great exposure. For all of us that play music in any way, shape or form--thank you, Sareth." (24:49)
- Michael Sword, Pueblo, Colo. musician

"Sareth, you wanted to become a superhero--boom, you did it. You want[ed] to become a journalist--boom, you did it. You wanted to change the face of music, comedians for the town of Pueblo--I think you've done it. So, you've done everything you set your mind out to..." (35:44)
- Patrick Butkovich, Pueblo, Colo. stand-up comic
St. Augustine, Florida’s Corazon Comedy Festival was Ney’s second festival he created. 100% of the proceeds went to rebuild the Corazon Cinema and Café, after impacts of Hurricane Matthew and Hurricane Irma. He created the monthly storytelling event, Confessions of the Corazon, and hosted for two years.​

Sareth-Fest Music and Comedy Festival Daytona Beach in Florida was started, in 2021. Ney produced, self-directed and wrote his stand-up special/documentary masterpiece.
