JEAN HERSHOLT HUMANITARIAN AWARD
* Roger Mayer
HONORARY AWARD
* To Sidney Lumet in recognition of his brilliant services to screenwriters, performers
and the art of the motion picture.
GORDON E. SAWYER AWARD
* Takuo Miyagishima
SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL AWARD (Academy Award of Merit)
* To HORST BURBULLA for the invention and continuing development of the Technocrane
telescoping camera crane. With its electronically driven leveling head, adjustable
moveable weight carriage, and lightweight, extremely precise telescoping beam elements
that allow camera movement during shots, the Technocrane has redefined the
state-of-the-art in camera crane technology. [Camera Cranes]
* To JEAN-MARIE LAVALOU, ALAIN MASSERON and DAVID SAMUELSON for the engineering and
development of the Louma Camera Crane and remote system for motion picture production. The
Louma pioneered a remotely-operated camera head combined with a lightweight and portable
modular crane. Its design has proved to be the inspiration for numerous subsequent remote
camera systems. [Camera Cranes]
SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL AWARD (Scientific and Engineering Award)
* To GYULA MESTER (electronic systems design) and KEITH EDWARDS (mechanical engineering)
for their significant contributions to and continuing development of the Technocrane
telescoping camera crane. With its electronically driven leveling head, adjustable
moveable weight carriage, and lightweight, extremely precise telescoping beam elements
that allow camera movement during shots, the Technocrane has redefined the
state-of-the-art in camera crane technology. [Camera Cranes]
* To LINDSAY ARNOLD, GUY GRIFFITHS, DAVID HODSON, CHARLIE LAWRENCE and DAVID MANN for
their development of the Cineon Digital Film Workstation. Cineon pioneered a commercial
node-graph compositing system establishing a new visual method for direct manipulation of
the compositing process, which influenced and defined modern digital compositing
workflows. [Digital Imaging Technology]
SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL AWARD (Technical Achievement Award)
* To GREG CANNOM and WESLEY WOFFORD for the development of their special modified silicone
material for makeup appliances used in motion pictures. This proprietary modified silicone
makeup system allows for the creation of either partial or full-face appliances for motion
picture makeup effects that move like real flesh, have translucency similar to skin and
will accept standard makeup materials. [Systems]
* To JERRY COTTS for the original concept and design and ANTHONY SEAMAN for the
engineering of the Satellight-X HMI Softlight. With its large radiating surface and thin
profile, this collapsible, self-contained HMI softlight provides a diffuse light to
simulate daylight in location interiors, where space is often limited. [Lighting]
* To STEVEN E. BOZE for the design and implementation of the DNF 001 multi-band digital
audio noise suppressor. Designed in the early 1990s when digital signal processing was in
its early stages, the real-time digital approach of the DNF 001 provided accurate filter
response with minimal interaction, allowing noise attenuation with fewer artifacts.
[Sound]
* To DR. CHRISTOPHER HICKS and DAVE BETTS for the design and implementation of the Cedar
DNS 1000 multi-band digital noise suppressor. The Cedar DNS 1000 is specifically designed
to reduce background noise from recorded motion picture dialog. With its precise filters
it allows the frequency ranges to be altered or even cascaded to pinpoint and reduce the
offending noise. [Sound]
* To NELSON TYLER for the development of the Tyler Gyroplatform boat mount stabilizing
device for motion picture photography. As a pioneer in this area of motion picture
technology, Tyler's 2-axis, hydraulically-powered camera mount successfully eliminates the
pitch and roll associated with camera shots taken from a boat in the water. [Photography]
* To DR. JULIAN MORRIS, MICHAEL BIRCH, DR. PAUL SMYTH and PAUL TATE for the development of
the Vicon motion capture technology. Vicon Motion Systems developed special-purpose
cameras for motion capture with software systems that maximized their impact on the motion
picture industry. [Digital Imaging Technology]
* To DR. JOHN O.B. GREAVES, NED PHIPPS, ANTONIE J. VAN DEN BOGERT and WILLIAM HAYES for
the development of the Motion Analysis motion capture technology. Motion Analysis
Corporation developed special-purpose cameras for motion capture with software systems
that maximized their impact on the motion picture industry. [Digital Imaging Technology]
* To DR. NELS MADSEN, VAUGHN CATO, MATTHEW MADDEN and BILL LORTON for the development of
the Giant Studios motion capture technology. The software solution created by Giant
Studios applied a unique biometric approach that has influenced the development of motion
capture technology for motion pictures. [Digital Imaging Technology]
* To ALAN KAPLER for the design and development of "Storm," a software toolkit
for artistic control of volumetric effects. "Storm" employs an efficient method
for directly manipulating volumetric data to create effects such as clouds, water and
avalanches with familiar operators inspired by image compositing and painting operations.
[Digital Imaging Technology]
AWARD OF COMMENDATION
* To Arthur Widmer for his lifetime of achievement in the science and technology of image
compositing for motion pictures as exemplified by his significant contributions to the
development of the Ultra Violet and the "bluescreen" compositing processes.
