The White RooM - Scott Patterson (Post Production Supervisor)

Scott Patterson - Post Production Supervisor

Hey, this is Scott, let me tell you about how I met Laurie. I went to see a couple of bands play at the El Rey Theatre in LA. I've been waiting to see these bands for a very long time and I had planned earlier in the night to take some really "great pictures" of the bands. I brought a nice camera with plenty of film, I was set. Once my band came on, I was ready. Here come the pictures, "click, click", no flash. Tried again, same thing happened. Then the camera, with a mind of its own, just stopped working. I was so upset. I saw all of these bright flashes going on around me and that just made it worse. So I went to the men's bathroom to sulk and get a better look at the camera. That's when I saw Laurie, she strolled in commenting on the women's line to the bathroom being to long. I admired her zeal, we started talking. She mentioned she had a camera in her car and offered her assistance. She said, "Give me your address & I'll send you the pictures you want." I thought that was nice but, thought she was joking. But within a couple of weeks, she was a woman of her word, and we've been cool ever since. That was about 7 years ago, at least. Then one day, years later after knowing how cool & competent I am, she asked me if I would like to join the crew of The White Room. We went through all the responsibilities that would be needed from me and the rest is history.

Back in 1990 I was a DJ at the club in Hollywood called: The Theatre of Vampires, Style: Industrial, Goth, & Darkwave. I did that for about a year. Then the same people wanted me back in 92', the name of the club was: D.O.A. Then in 94' I began Djing for a club known as: Wake. That was a fun experience for me, which while doing club Wake I was also Djing at club: Catastrophe. Also for about 3 years I was the DJ at the well-known Ontario club: N Fear of Fear. I've also done a lot of house parities and small gatherings for people who had heard of me on the club circuit by word of mouth. I now secure buildings and work the door for private and business outfits. The way I see it, the more experience you have in life, in anything, the more you improve yourself. And that's what life is all about. In my spare time I am an artist. I draw, paint, and on occasions do landscapes when I'm in the mood. I guess in a nutshell it all sums up just one thing.....that I am "the one".
