Scott's Story

Life After high school I attended college at The University at Albany. I studied English which was concentrated in Creative Writing (Screenwriting and Playwriting.) I minored in Theater and Film. After I finished my undergrad work I started grad school in Dramatic Writing. I hated it. One day my Faculty Mentor pulled me aside and asked me what I was doing. He explained to me that what I wanted to learn could not be taught - that I had the talent and now needed to live and write. I dropped out of school the next day. I decided shortly thereafter that I had no real desire to move to New York City or Los Angeles since I knew writing was something I could do anywhere, so I ended up moving home. I worked at WKTV and after a few years I decided Utica wasn't for me either, so I headed back to Albany. I stayed there for a little over two years. While in Albany I started my own D.J. business. It was a great "job." I got paid to have fun...who could complain? I also worked with fellow alum Kevin Heckeler doing tech support for Fleet Bank. During that time I contuinued to write and develop projects but as 2002 started I realized I was missing something. By September of that year I was living in Los Angeles.

ight months to get situated and settled I started working for a producer named Marty Katz. He produced such movies as "Titanic," "Reindeer Games," and "The Great Raid." I worked for Marty for a little over a year . He was a great teacher and taught me many things a lot of people in this industry don't freely pass on. Currently I'm employed at Miramax Films where I'm learning even more. I love my job which is all I could ever really ask for. I'm also hard at work on my own projects. I'm in the process of developing and selling a television pilot and it's going amazingly well. Everyday it looks more and more like I might have a television show on the air come next fall. Life is busy and stressful but it's damn good. I'm doing what I've always wanted to do. I am not married and not currently involved. I'm taking that time and freedom and investing it in my career. In a few years I'll look to start a family. I'm too close to the promised land for that right now so it's just me and my cat. He's good company when he's not driving me insane. Everyone keeps telling me things could change tomorrow! Well duh! I am productive, healthy, and happy and I learned a long time ago you can't plan anything, so why even try?
