After nine years as a board member, Bobbi Banks has been elected Vice-President of the organization. Devon Curry has been elected Treasurer. Re-elected were Lisa Ramirez, Secretary, and Solange Schwalbe, Sergeant-at-Arms.
Also elected was new president David Bondelevitch. Bondelevitch is the first music editor to be elected president of the organization. He is also a lecturer at the USC School of Cinema-Television and a member of the Cinema Audio Society. “I hope we are able to encourage a better sense of community within the branches of the post-production community,” Bondelevitch stated.
