16 I M PS E . O R G EIPMA Student Filmmaker Award for the Vaughan International Film Festival As mentioned in Winter 2025 MPSE Wavelength, EIPMA, along with Tomorrow's Talent, has teamed up through the past year to set up tours at Warner Bros., Sony Pictures, and Disney for high school and college students from the San Bernardino area. These tours give students an unforgettable behind-the- scenes look at some of the industry's most renowned studios. Accompanied by professionals working in audio and sound, they explored various sound stages and gained insights into the intricate process of creating and layering sounds in films. Through collaborations like these, we can help cultivate the next generation of creative professionals in the exciting and dynamic world of entertainment.
