Framestore CFC Nominated For Seven Awards At VES
Framestore CFC has equalled its own record in the annual VES Award nominations, announced on January 8.
Matching last year's feat, company members gained seven nominations in the Fifth Annual VES Awards. The nominations span three different media - commercials, television and film - more than any other single company, marking a unique achievement for the UK facility.
The nominated categories are:
Founded in 1997, the Visual Effects Society is an organization comprised of visual effects artists desiring to honour, advance and promote visual effects for its membership and the industry as a whole. Society headquarters are located in Los Angeles, CA with approximately 1,300 members in 16 countries. The Awards were first given in 2003, and this year they recognize outstanding visual effects in twenty one categories of film, television, commercials, music videos and games. Nominees were chosen by a panel of over eighty visual effects professionals.
Framestore CFC has consistently performed well at the VES Awards. Since their inception in 2003, the company has won a total of ten trophies, including three of the four 'Outstanding Visual Effects in a Commercial' Awards.
Winners will be announced at the 5th Annual VES Awards gala on February 11, 2007 at the Kodak Grand Ballroom in Hollywood.
