He began producing his own independent videos on YouTube in 2006. His content consisted of parodies of blockbuster films such as Inception, Twilight, and The Hangover.
Ford's early roles included minor characters in Zoey 101, Bratz, and Victorious. In 2009, he was cast in the main role for the kids' TV show Kamen Rider: Dragon Knight.

In 2014, shortly after his role on Switched at Birth, he took a hiatus from acting. In 2016, he started working for YouTube gaming channel Machinima as a host, editor, and producer for a variety of content. This sub-channel, Ascender, focused on live action adaptations of video games, starting with SIXERS, based on Ubisoft's Rainbow Six: Siege. Ford parted ways with the company, taking the Ascender channel with him, using it to rebrand his own production company.
