Review of LAPPG one-day workshop on sound
This past Saturday was the LAPPG seminar on production and post-production audio held at the ShowBiz Store & Cafe in Los Angeles. I instructed the production side of sound, and Woody Woodhall CAS covered the post side. Attendance was smaller than we had hoped for, probably due to the coincidence of a few other industry events that took place on that same day, such as the CAS Parade of Soundcarts.
Changes in Store for the CAS
Hello to our members, students, and interested persons from all over the world. I'd like to introduce you to our new Cinema Audio Society Website - cinemaaudiosociety.org. There you will find the latest up-to-date information about membership procedures, the Awards nominations, voting, seminars, sponsors, forums, and links to many other sound oriented organizations. Our site has been prepared by your Board members, whose goal is to bring us news, information and discussions in one easy to navigate space. As we grow our site and the CAS, you will find podcasts, links to screenings, and contact links to your Board of Directors, Officers, and office staff.
Report from DV Expo 2011
Yesterday and today (Sept 21-22, 2011) marked yet another annual DV Expo tradeshow, held again this year in Pasadena, California. It is sad to say that these shows are getting smaller and smaller. If it wasn't my professional obligation to check it out, I doubt that I would have attended.
