The Sounding Board v2.0
By Karol Urban CAS MPSE
On November 5th from 10 am-4 pm at EVS Studios in Glendale, Cinema Audio Society and Motion Picture Sound Editors hosted The Sounding Board v2.0. The co-produced event aimed to unite soundies from multiple disciplines and create a forum for information exchange and networking. The event was a very successful and well-attended undertaking. Thank you to all the volunteers from MPSE and CAS and their respective offices who made this incredible day possible.In addition to a networking lunch and raffle, the day featured three main events: Workflow: Mic to Mix, Parade of Carts and Bags, and Our Partners in Sound Crime.
In-depth coverage is available in the 2023 Spring Edition of CAS Quarterly.
The first panel, “Mic to Mix,” focused on the evolution of a film’s soundtrack, best practices, and ways to open communication between departments.
