He has also appeared in many other television series including All Saints, East West 101 and McLeod's Daughters, the 2005 movie The Great Raid and voiced a character in the 2008 stop motion animated movie $9.99.

Ford is also an accomplished author, and in 2009 penned the story "What Doesn't Kill You", the story of a man waking up to find that, instead of the ideal life he’d been living, everything has gone horribly wrong overnight. He wakes up in the wrong house, his wife doesn’t love him anymore, he doesn’t have a job anymore, and one of his friends betrayed him in the worst possible way. Plus his car exploded.

In addition to acting, he is also both a Director and Screenwriter. In 2010, Ford both wrote and directed the movie Griff the Invisible, starring Ryan Kwanten as a man who is bullied by his coworkers during the day, but a superhero by night. The film premiered at the 2010 Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), where it was well received by audiences and critics. Ford attended Binger Filmlab in 2008, where he developed feature film The Mechanicals.

Stage roles include playing pious charlatan Tartuffe in the 2014 Bell Shakespeare version of Tartuffe, based on the French play originally written by Molière.
