"Beverly Hills, CA — The 77th Annual Academy Awards race is on. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has mailed application forms for the 2004 Scientific and Technical Awards.
Entry forms were sent to more than 850 companies and individuals, including past winners, within the sci-tech community both in the United States and abroad.
"This is a very specific and detailed process," said Committee Chair Richard Edlund, "which is why we send applications out now. We can then begin to collect a list of achievements that can be considered by the Sci-Tech Awards Committee for recognition at the 77th Academy Awards."
In order to be considered, achievements must show exceptional merit and evidence of having provided significant advances in the production of motion pictures.
"Technologies and achievements don't have to have been invented within the past year," said Awards Administration Director Rich Miller. "Actually, they must have a proven track record of continued and successful use in the film industry,"
All entry applications must be submitted to the Academy no later than Friday, July 30.
Technical advances submitted to the Scientific and Technical Awards Committee will be evaluated by both the main committee and sub-committees comprised of distinguished engineers, scientists and craftspersons before being recommended to the Academy's Board of Governors for award consideration."
