* Irwin W. Young
SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL AWARD (Academy Award of Merit)
* To ROB COOK, LOREN CARPENTER and ED CATMULL for their significant advancements to the
field of motion picture rendering as exemplified in Pixar's 'Renderman.' Their broad
professional influence in the industry continues to inspire and contribute to the
advancement of computer-generated imagery for motion pictures. [Special Photographic]
SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL AWARD (Scientific and Engineering Award)
* To AL MAYER, SR. and AL MAYER, JR., for the mechanical design, IAIN NEIL for the optical
design and BRIAN DANG for the electronic design of the Panavision Millennium XL Camera
System. This camera brings the full uncompromised performance of larger heavy-duty cameras
to the lightest weight category with ruggedness and advanced features previously expected
only in specialized or effects cameras. [Camera]
* To JOE WARY, GERALD PAINTER and COLIN F. MOSSMAN for the design and development of the
Deluxe Laboratories Multi Roller Film Transport System. This release print system at
Deluxe Laboratories utilizes a revolutionary design allowing for higher print volumes,
reduced space requirements for loop racks and elevators, and safer operation. [Laboratory]
* To ALVAH J. MILLER and PAUL JOHNSON of Lynx Robotics for the electronic and software
design of the Lynx C-50 Camera Motor System. This camera motor, operated with programmable
microprocessors, achieves an unprecedented range of precisely controlled speeds in
stand-alone cameras or when synchronized to motion-control systems. [Camera]
* To AKAI DIGITAL for the design and development of the DD8plus digital audio dubber
specifically designed for the motion picture industry. [These] digital audio dubbers have
afforded the post-production community a faster, more cost-effective means of playing back
hundreds of digital audio tracks for pre-mixing or final mixing in creating motion picture
sound tracks. They also offer individual track slipping in multiple track configurations,
random access recall, and both destructive and non-destructive editing capabilities,
eliminating the requirements for razor blade conforming. [Sound]
* To FAIRLIGHT for the design and development of the DAD digital audio dubber specifically
designed for the motion picture industry. [These] digital audio dubbers have afforded the
post-production community a faster, more cost-effective means of playing back hundreds of
digital audio tracks for pre-mixing or final mixing in creating motion picture sound
tracks. They also offer individual track slipping in multiple track configurations, random
access recall, and both destructive and non-destructive editing capabilities, eliminating
the requirements for razor blade conforming. [Sound]
* To ADVANCED DIGITAL SYSTEMS GROUP (ADSG) for the design and development of the Sony DADR
5000 digital audio dubber specifically designed for the motion picture industry. [These]
digital audio dubbers have afforded the post-production community a faster, more
cost-effective means of playing back hundreds of digital audio tracks for pre-mixing or
final mixing in creating motion picture sound tracks. They also offer individual track
slipping in multiple track configurations, random access recall, and both destructive and
non-destructive editing capabilities, eliminating the requirements for razor blade
conforming. [Sound]
* To TIMELINE, INCORPORATED for the design and development of the MMR 8 digital audio
dubber specifically designed for the motion picture industry. [These] digital audio
dubbers have afforded the post-production community a faster, more cost-effective means of
playing back hundreds of digital audio tracks for pre-mixing or final mixing in creating
motion picture sound tracks. They also offer individual track slipping in multiple track
configurations, random access recall, and both destructive and non-destructive editing
capabilities, eliminating the requirements for razor blade conforming. [Sound]
SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL AWARD (Technical Achievement Award)
* To LEONARD PINCUS, ASHOT NALBANDYAN, GEORGE JOHNSON, THOMAS KONG and DAVID PRINGLE for
the design and development of the SoftSun low pressure xenon long-arc light sources, their
power supplies and fixtures. With the ability to dim these very high powered lights at
essentially constant Kelvin temperature and without flicker, these units produce a bright
and even light source for general set lighting. The availability of very high wattage
units allows production to extend the hours of work past the time when the crew would
otherwise have 'lost the light.' [Lighting]
* To VIC ARMSTRONG for the refinement and application to the film industry of the Fan
Descender for accurately and safely arresting the descent of stunt persons in high
freefalls. Considered a standard of the industry, the Fan Descender provides a means for
significantly increasing the safety of very high stunt falls. The system permits falls to
be made under controlled deceleration and with a highly predictable stopping point without
limitation of camera angles. [Stage Operations]
* To PHILIP GREENSTREET of Rosco Laboratories for the concept and development of the
Roscolight Day/Night Backdrop. This unique photographic scenic backing allows a smooth
transition from day to night views with a single backing. The Roscolight backings provide
an important new creative tool to filmmakers, saving time, money and stage space. [Stage
Operations]
* To UDO SCHAUSS, HILDEGARD EBBESMEIER and KARL LENHARDT for the optical design, and RALF
LINN and NORBERT BRINKER for the mechanical design of the Schneider Super Cinelux lenses
for motion picture projection. These projection lenses provide a significant improvement
in the quality of the cinema viewing experience. [Lenses and Filters]
* To GLENN M. BERGGREN for the concept, HORST LINGE for research and development, and
WOLFGANG REINECKE for the optical design of the ISCO Ultra-Star Plus lenses for motion
picture projection. The unique optical design of the Ultra-Star Plus projection lenses
achieves unprecedented edge-to-edge uniformity of illumination, combined with a
significant increase in screen brightness, thus providing a substantial improvement in the
cinema viewing experience. [Lenses and Filters]
* To BILL TONDREAU of Kuper Systems, ALVAH J. MILLER and PAUL JOHNSON of Lynx Robotics,
and DAVID STUMP of Visual Effects Rental Services for the conception, design and
development of data capture systems that enable superior accuracy, efficiency and economy
in the creation of composite imagery. These systems digitally record live action camera
and axis data with practically no impact on the live action production process, allowing
compositing for visual effects to become faster and more cost-effective. [Systems]
* To VENKAT KRISHNAMURTHY for the creation of the Paraform Software for 3D Digital Form
Development. This system streamlines the creation of 3D computer graphics models by
allowing artists to convert the data from automatically scanned physical models into a
user-specified configuration of patches well suited for use in computer applications.
[Special Photographic]
* To GEORGE BORSHUKOV, KIM LIBRERI and DAN PIPONI for the development of a system for
image-based rendering allowing choreographed camera movements through computer graphic
reconstructed sets. This component of the Manex Visual Effects Virtual Cinematography
System provides theatrical-quality virtual settings. [Special Photographic]
* To JOHN P. PYTLAK for the development of the Laboratory Aim Density (LAD) system. The
LAD system has become the standard method used by film laboratories and digital film
recording facilities for the effecient and uniform control of color and exposure in camera
negatives, interpositives and duplicate negatives. [Laboratory]
AWARD OF COMMENDATION
* To Ioan Allen for the concept, Robin Bransbury for the design and Mark Harrah for the
implementation of the Trailer Audio Standards Association (TASA) Loudness Standard. The
