Since moving toward sound for picture (and to Los Angeles), Doc is now a production sound mixer and audio supervisor with 100+ credits to his name.

CAS Associate member Sam Casas After graduating from UCSD's Revelle College as a music technology major in 1999, Sam began his career in audio post-production in the tape vault at POP Sound in Santa Monica.

Working on a major studio feature or limited series is Sam's next career goal. Sam's 5.1 home studio has enabled him to stay busy during the pandemic while allowing him to spend more time with his wife Elise and 4-year-old son Sebastian. Peter Kelsey CAS started his career in sound at the illustrious independent recording studio Trident Studios, where all the early Elton John and David Bowie albums were recorded.
