6 S U M M E R 2 0 2 2 I C A S Q U A R T E R L Y Dear Members, Our 58th Annual CAS Awards was a very special night. I found myself overcome at times with joy as I looked out into the crowd and saw so many of the faces I had missed over the past two years. The smiles and laughter observed reaffirm the importance of our work at Cinema Audio Society to foster solidarity and fellowship. Enjoy our 2nd Annual "Meet the Winners" on our YouTube channel, as well as this annual special "Meet the Winners" edition of the CAS Quarterly. Our industry is booming with content, and your peers are doing exciting work. Learn about this year's 58th CAS Award winners and how they created the sound of this year's most compelling narratives. We are pleased to announce that we have launched a merchandising site! CAS Mixer Merch is open now and contains CAS-branded merchandise and branded lifestyle products. CAS members enjoy 15 percent off their cart as part of our grand opening. Check your emails for your special code. This can only be used once per customer and cannot be combined with other coupons. Visit CAS Mixer Merch at https://shop.CinemaAudioSociety.org/ We are expanding our partnerships and participation with other industry organizations, such as L.A. Post Production Group, Digital Cinema Society, Cine Gear, Filmmaker Academy, PGA, and others, in order to promote sound for picture and unify the crafts. Keep your eyes open for many co-events and announcements of CAS participation in the coming months. Recently, Cinema Audio Society donated to and became a partner with "Safe and and Sound Ukraine," a fundraising project aiming to purchase robust walkie- talkies and satellite phones for Ukrainian medics, volunteers, and evacuation coordinators. All donations go to United Help Ukraine, a 501c3 charity. To learn more or donate, visit https://www.SafeAndSoundUkraine.org/ Finally, please keep your eyes on your email for forthcoming invitations. We will be beginning our Summer Event Series soon and plan to offer physical events, as well as continuing our virtual programming. Serving the sound community through the CAS continues to be one of the most precious and rewarding experiences of my professional career. If you have any suggestions or ideas you would like to share or wish to become more involved in the Cinema Audio Society, please reach out to CASpresident@CinemaAudioSociety.org.
