Discreet clients nominated for Visual Effects Academy Award

The top three films nominated this year for the Academy Award for Achievement in Visual Effects all used Discreet's effects, editing and finishing systems and software to deliver outstanding visual experiences to audiences across the globe. The films and post-production facilities nominated for achievement in best visual effects are: 'A.I. Artificial Intelligence' (Industrial Light & Magic); 'Pearl Harbor' (Industrial Light & Magic, Asylum and Cinesite); 'The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring' (WETA, Digital Domain, Animal Logic, Oktober and Rhythm & Hues).
All of the films nominated in this category offer visually stunning effects. Discreet developed and delivered the software and systems the digital artists used in all the nominated films-helping them fluidly translate their artistic visions to the big screen.
Discreet technology has been a part of more than 95 per cent of the nominated films in best visual effects for the last seven years, including last year's winning film, 'Gladiator' The 74th Annual Academy Awards will air on Sunday, March 24.
