studiomprd Posted January 8, 2014 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 For the first time in the history of the Scientific and Technical Awards, a large number of individuals, collectively, will be recognized with an Academy Award of Merit (an Oscar statuette). ACADEMY AWARD OF MERIT (OSCAR STATUETTE) To all those who built and operated film laboratories, for over a century of service to the motion picture industry. Lab employees have contributed extraordinary efforts to achieve filmmakers’ artistic expectations for special film processing and the production of billions of feet of release prints per year. This work has allowed an expanded motion picture audience and unequaled worldwide cinema experience. http://variety.com/2014/film/news/oscar-unveils-19-sci-tech-achievements-1201037813/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
