      SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL AWARD (Academy Award of Merit) 
*  To
COOKE OPTICS LIMITED for their continuing innovation in the design,
development and manufacture of advanced camera lenses that have helped
define the look of motion pictures over the last century. Since their
first series of motion picture lenses, Cooke Optics has continued to
create optical innovations decade after decade. Producing what is
commonly referred to as the "Cooke Look," these lenses have often been
the lens of choice for creative cinematographers worldwide. [Lenses and
Filters] 
       
JOHN A. BONNER MEDAL OF COMMENDATION 
*  To Bill
Taylor in appreciation for outstanding service and dedication in
upholding the high standards of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and
Sciences. 
       
SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL AWARD (Scientific and Engineering Award) 
*  To
SIMON CLUTTERBUCK, JAMES JACOBS and DR. RICHARD DORLING for the
development of the Tissue Physically-Based Character Simulation
Framework. This framework faithfully and robustly simulates the effects
of anatomical structures underlying a character's skin. The resulting
dynamic and secondary motions provide a new level of realism to
computer-generated creatures. [Digital Imaging Technology] 
*  To DR.
PHILIP McLAUCHLAN, ALLAN JAENICKE, JOHN-PAUL SMITH and ROSS SHAIN for
the creation of the Mocha planar tracking and rotoscoping software at
Imagineer Systems Ltd. Mocha provides robust planar-tracking even when
there are no clearly defined points in the image. Its effectiveness,
ease of use, and ability to exchange rotoscoping data with other image
processing tools have resulted in widespread adoption of the software
in the visual effects industry. [Digital Imaging Technology] 
*   To
JOE MURTHA, WILLIAM FREDERICK and JIM MARKLAND of Anton/Bauer, Inc. for
the design and creation of the CINE VCLX Portable Power System. The
CINE VCLX provides extended run-times and flexibility, allowing users
to power cameras and other supplementary equipment required for
production. This high-capacity battery system is also matched to the
high-demand, always-on digital cinema cameras. [Systems] 
       
SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL AWARD (Technical Achievement Award) 
*  To
J.P. LEWIS, MATT CORDNER and NICKSON FONG for the invention and
publication of the Pose Space Deformation technique. Pose Space
Deformation (PSD) introduced the use of novel sparse data interpolation
techniques to the task of shape interpolation. The controllability and
ease of achieving artistic intent have led to PSD being a foundational
technique in the creation of computer-generated characters. [Digital
Imaging Technology] 
*  To LAWRENCE KESTELOOT, DREW OLBRICH and
DANIEL WEXLER for the creation of the Light system for computer
graphics lighting at PDI/DreamWorks. Virtually unchanged from its
original incarnation over 15 years ago, Light is still in continuous
use due to its emphasis on interactive responsiveness, final-quality
interactive render preview, scalable architecture and powerful
user-configurable spreadsheet interface. [Digital Imaging Technology] 
*  
 To STEVE LaVIETES, BRIAN HALL and JEREMY SELAN for the creation of the
Katana computer graphics scene management and lighting software at Sony
Pictures Imageworks. Katana's unique design, featuring a deferred
evaluation procedural node-graph, provides a highly efficient lighting
and rendering workflow. It allows artists to non-destructively edit
scenes too complex to fit into computer memory, at scales ranging from
a single object up to an entire detailed city. [Digital Imaging
Technology] 
*    To THEODORE KIM, NILS THUEREY, DR. MARKUS GROSS and
DOUG JAMES for the invention, publication and dissemination of Wavelet
Turbulence software. This technique allowed for fast, art-directable
creation of highly detailed gas simulation, making it easier for the
artist to control the appearance of these effects in the final image.
[Digital Imaging Technology] 
*    To RICHARD MALL for the design and
development of the Matthews Max Menace Arm. Highly sophisticated and
well-engineered, the Max Menace Arm is a safe and adjustable device
that allows rapid, precise positioning of lighting fixtures, cameras or
accessories. On-set or on location, this compact and highly portable
structure is often used where access is limited due to restrictions on
attaching equipment to existing surfaces. [Stage Operations]
