JEAN HERSHOLT HUMANITARIAN AWARD
GORDON E. SAWYER AWARD
SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL AWARD (Scientific and Engineering Award)
Lighting
With its choice of vari-focus and specular reflectors, the superior optical and mechanical design of this lighting fixture allows it to operate at 18,000 watts, producing unsurpassed light quality while its innovative cooling system keeps the housing safe to touch.
Systems
Using color LCD screens, the Transvideo monitors provide flicker-free video assist bright enough for use in sunlight and have become a ubiquitous tool in both spherical and anamorphic cinematography.
Lenses and Filters
With focus and zoom functions that can be easily controlled by either the operator or focus puller while filming handheld, these lightweight zoom lenses demonstrate a very high degree of engineering, supporting both ease of use and quick interchange.
SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL AWARD (Technical Achievement Award)
Lenses and Filters
When attached to a film or digital production camera, this versatile aerial image device can produce a wide variety of optical effects interactively, on set and in real time without post-production image manipulation.
