He then led Lucasfilm’s Industrial Light and Magic for George Lucas through the 90’s, and under his direction ILM won five Academy Awards for Best Visual Effects. In 1993, with partners James Cameron and Stan Winston, Scott co-founded Digital Domain – one of the largest digital production studios in the motion picture and advertising industries. Under Scott’s leadership Digital Domain has won both Academy Awards and dozens of Clio Awards.

Nashville producer and talent agent Marty Marmor will help with talent wrangling and promotions, and our house band of tremendous local and Bay Area musicians will bring their magic to support our featured artists. Our music director Terry Smith, is charged with harnessing the very best of these “Clay-Ville” musicians and illuminating our featured artist’s subtle and hidden talents as well as their very apparent ones. Jenna was the obvious first choice because of her superb musicianship –and it doesn’t hurt that she is telegenic, smart and charming, as well as a natural storyteller who is sure to captivate our audience. Already on board for future episodes are:
• Keyboard wizard Martin Gerschwitz, of " the Animals" and " Iron Butterfly" fame and an incredible performer.
