Shortly after arriving in Los Angeles, Dustin found work with Emmy-nominated Director Gil Junger, who directed the film 10 Things I Hate About You, as well as TV series Kyle XY, Ellen and Greek.

In 2009, Schuetter formed Dark Horse Pictures, with co-producer and partner Bernadette F. Dugas, which would later be changed to Aria Cinema Relic.

In 2010, Schuetter went on to write, direct, produce and play the lead in his film Samuel Bleak starring Debora Kara Unger, David Zayas, Jamie Murray, Keith David, James Russo, Robert Miano, K Callan and co-producer Carlucci Weyant.
