Ross, John
President and founder of Laurel Canyon Live started out as a live concert mix engineer for major touring acts, later segueing into recording studio work, in the late 80’s he took many of the emerging technologies that were being utilized for music production and applied them to audio post-production for film and television.
He started a company called Digital Sound and Picture in the early 90’s which was built on the idea of rethinking what was possible with the adaptation of newer immerging digital technologies for post-production. This company went on to work on many first run motion pictures and television series.
He sold the company in 1999 to a subsidiary of Liberty Media. In 2006 he opened up a new operation that was dedicated to providing a more personalized space for filmmakers.
With over 200 motion picture credits, he moved into his first love of music and combined the skills from traditional motion picture production and music production into a new venture that streams live music concerts to mobile devices and televisions as well as motion picture theaters.
He has worked with IMAX on their IMAX Live initiative, and for Taylor Swift (Eras Tour motion picture), Beyonce (Renaissance Tour motion picture), and many more.
