Steve Cremin, Christian Eubank, Pete Kelley, Joe Love, Wes Mattox, Paul Sabourin, Richard Terry Tjelmeland & Sparky Willis for The Hunger Games: Catching Fire


AND THE WINNER IS:



TIM WEBBER, CHRIS LAWRENCE, DAVE SHIRK & NEIL CORBOULD FOR GRAVITY


These are the first wins and nominations for Tim Webber, Chris Lawrence & Dave Shirk. This is Neil Corbould’s second win and third nomination, he previously won for Saving Private Ryan (1998) and was nominated for The Fifth Element (1997).


The winner was no question as the whole 90 minutes of Gravity was fully filled from shot to shot with great new visual technology creating the many shots of space such as the open vastness and many explosions that occurred during the running time and also the great overhead shots of the earth and how realistic it looked. The effects in this film done by Alfonso and his team was a great way to introduced new technology and was no question to be the best visual effects of the year.
