MIX – Sound for Film 2015
by: Karol Urban, CAS
The second Sound for Film event by the Host Sponsor Sony at Sony Studios in Culver City on the 26th. With a keynote address featuring Mark Mangini, a full day of featured seminars, a Master Class Series by many of the leaders in immersive sound, and a myriad of networking opportunities, the well attended event was a huge success.
After a networking breakfast, events kicked off. DSPATIAL, Audio Intervisual Design, DTS, Dol-by, and Auro held presentations throughout the day presenting the newest technologies avai-lable as well as demonstrating suggested workflows. The Seminars presented by Formosa Group, CAS, MPSE, and DTS provided a list of extremely impressive expert panelists and mod-erators covering aspects of Music, Dialog, Sound effects, and Immersive Mixing. Lunch was provided by Wolfgang Puck and the day was was capped off with a cocktail hour outside of Stage 7 followed by a screening of Max Max: Fury Road presented by Dolby in Atmos in the William Holden Theater.
The Motion Picture Sound Editors (MPSE) and Cinema Audio Society (CAS) co-sponsored event was an exemplary knowledge sharing exchange that embodies many of the core values of our organization.
