Scott Ross discusses ILM, Pixar, James Cameron and Digital Domain - check this out

[Jet Beetle]

I've been lucky enough to have great mentors since I stepped off the bus in Hollywood. First would be my father in law, who is simply one of the smartest people I have ever met. Then there's Terry and Ted who took me under their wing and showed me how to put words together, but someone who taught me equally as much as they did is a man named Scott Ross. Some of you here I'm sure know Scott. He ran ILM for years and it was thanks to him I was able to visit the ranch constantly and rome the prop house. Thanks to him I was able to sit down and have dinner with James Cameron and spend a few days with Stan Winston. He was there pushing for me to direct Instant Karma, laying the tools of Digital Domain at my feet. Scott has a million great stories and he shares a few here - the x-rated ones are even better. Enjoy

I've never met him but heard some storys about him and what a great guy he is.

I would just love to talk to him about his Music days, God the stories he could tell.

I was just talking to a friend this morning who grew up in the 60's and man what a magical time it was.

Man I would have loved to been in my 20's in the late 60's!

Thanks for the great link Paul!
