Academy Award for Katana

This weekend the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences awarded Steve LaVietes, Jeremy Selen and Brian Hall an Academy Award for their work on Imagework’s Katana. Not surprisingly, it was a fantastic night.

Hosting the evening were Zoe Saldana And Chris Pine who handled the most challenging duties of the night: reading the technical descriptions for each of the awards. Everyone was thrilled to be getting awards from the cast of Star Trek.
