C A S Q U A R T E R L Y S P R I N G 2 0 1 7 9 often "a lot like plastic surgery, you only notice it when it's badly done." A video from Tom Hanks followed, personally congratulating John on the win. The CAS Filmmaker Award was presented to the dynamic and multitalented Jon Favreau by Seth Mac- Farlane, composer John Debney, and CAS President Mark Ulano. Favreau humbly accepted the award teas- ing, "It means so much to me that those who have worked with me didn't veto this." In fact, the net- working portions of the night were abuzz with per- sonal anecdotes and industry tales on how gracious and inclusive Jon is with crew on set. Favreau praised what he referred to as the "invisible art" and described that filmmaker moment where sound and picture are married as "magical." Finally, a recognition award very close to our hearts and our core mission values at the Cinema Audio Soci- ety, the CAS Student Recognition Award was presented to Wenrui "Sam" Fan of Chapman University. The CAS Student Recognition Award is enthusiastically support- ed by both IMAX and Avid Technology. The competition was stiff, but the evening was a warm event celebrating all those in sound. "We are blessed this year with a rich portfolio of Cinema Audio art applied. As the creative contributions of sound mixing to mod- ern filmmaking becomes more obvious to the world at large, these productions truly represent the talents of our community," said Mark Ulano. "We are proud to congratulate all our well-deserving nominees for their stellar work."
