Comment by Landon Johnson on January 11, 2009 at 9:21pm: Welcome to our new members. Remember to invite any and all you think suited to this group, the more we get the better a resource this will be for all.

Comment by A. Tad Chamberlain on January 10, 2009 at 8:09pm: Great group. I hope to get to meet and work with all of you at some point in the not-too-distant future.

I mix and boom op mostly on low budget indie productions (although I've recently done some work for Nike for online content). I am looking to work in the union as a boom operator. I have the days I just haven't gotten my act together to compile my documentation yet.

Joe, I'll keep you in mind when I have projects where I get a budget for a boom op.

Ben, I'll look forward to meeting you when you get out here. I used to live in England in the early '90s and always enjoy making friends from there.

Looking forward to being a part of this group.

Comment by Joe Stearns on January 8, 2009 at 9:36am: Hello to everyone again, I just wanted to say I'm just starting to get a feel for sound mixing. Currently I'm looking for experience anywhere I can find it. So if anyone needs help on any small projects or checking in equipment or whatever I'm willing to lend a free hand. Happy New Year to you all! Hit me up, I'm LA based. -Joe Stearns

Comment by Ben Greaves on January 8, 2009 at 6:39am: hello everyone.

happy new year to all!

Comment by Landon Johnson on January 5, 2009 at 1:06pm: Hopefully that name change will only be the "youth" portion, but time will tell. Perhaps "Age and Tact" will be the next step, knowing how messy the on set dynamics of a big production are. :P

Comment by Landon Johnson on January 5, 2009 at 1:03pm: Welcome to both Jeff and Crew!

Comment by Crew Chamberlain on January 2, 2009 at 2:50pm: Thanks for the invite though I am hardly a youth and my enthusiasm is seldom described by that word. I think it is a great definition for a group. Time goes fast so the name will change, but until then, Cheers.

Comment by Jeffrey S. Wexler on January 2, 2009 at 1:35pm: Thank you for your participation and enthusiasm. I will take credit for setting up this community but it will be its members that really make it fly. We will all benefit from everyone's efforts and attention.
Long live CinemaSound!

Comment by John E. Walker on January 2, 2009 at 1:23pm: Gentlemen. Please stand for Mr. Jeff Wexler! *cheers*

Comment by Joe Stearns on January 1, 2009 at 9:34pm: Thanks Landon! This site looks great. I'm learning how to be sound mixer and I'm excited for this whole new world!
