CURTIS CLARK TO

2018
9:29 pm
BONNER AWARD
BY. ERIC YANG
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences

announced today that cinematographer Curtis Clark
will receive the John A. Bonner Award (a medallion) for

his extraordinary service to the motion picture industry.
Nine scientific and technical achievements represented
by 27 individual award recipients will be honored at its
annual Scientific and Technical Awards Presentation on
Saturday, February 9, 2019, at the Beverly Wilshire in
Beverly Hills. “Each year, the Academy forms a diverse
committee made up of nearly 60 experts on the
technology of filmmaking tasked with examining the
tools that artists use to create films,” said Doug Roble,
chair of the Scientific and Technical Awards
Committee.
“This year, the committee is recognizing

nine technologies from around the world.
These extraordinary contributions to the
science of filmmaking have elevated our
art form to incredible new heights.”
Doug Roble
Unlike other Academy Awards to be presented this year,

achievements receiving Scientific and Technical Awards
need not have been developed and introduced during
2018. Rather, the achievements must demonstrate a
proven record of contributing significant value to the
process of making motion pictures.
The Academy Awards for scientific and technical
achievements are:
TECHNICAL ACHIEVEMENT AWARDS
(ACADEMY CERTIFICATES)
To Eric Dachs
Dachs, Erik Bielefeldt
Bielefeldt, Craig Wood and
Paul McReynolds for the design and development of
the PIX System’s novel security mechanism for
distributing media.
PIX System’s robust approach to secure media access has
enabled wide adoption of their remotely collaborative dailies-
review system by the motion picture industry.
To Per-Anders Edwards for the initial design and
development of the MoGraph toolset in Cinema 4D for
motion graphics.
MoGraph provides a fast, non-destructive and intuitive
workflow for motion designers to create animated 3D
graphics, as used for title design and fictional user interfaces
in motion pictures.
To Paul Miller for the software design, principal
engineering and continued innovation, and to Marco
Paolini for the efficient, artist-friendly workf low
design of the Silhouette rotoscope and paint system.
Silhouette provides a comprehensive solution for painting,
rotoscoping and image manipulation of high-resolution image
sequences. Its fast, scalable and extensible architecture has
resulted in wide adoption in motion picture post-production.
To Paul Debevec, Tim Hawkins and Wan-Chun
Ma for the invention of the Polarized Spherical
Gradient Illumination facial appearance capture
method, and to Xueming Yu for the design and
engineering of the Light Stage X capture system.
Polarized Spherical Gradient Illumination was a
breakthrough in facial capture technology allowing shape and
reflectance capture of an actor’s face with sub-millimeter
detail, enabling the faithful recreation of hero character faces.
The Light Stage X structure was the foundation for all
subsequent innovation and has been the keystone of the
method’s evolution into a production system.
To Thabo Beeler, Derek Bradley, Bernd Bickel
and Markus Gross for the conception, design and
engineering of the Medusa Performance Capture
System.
Medusa captures exceptionally dense animated meshes
without markers or makeup, pushing the boundaries of visual
fidelity and productivity for character facial performances in
motion pictures.
To Charles Loop for his inf luential research on the
fundamental scientific properties of subdivision surfaces
as 3D geometric modeling primitives.
Loop’s 1987 master’s thesis, “Smooth Subdivision Surfaces
Based on Triangles,” together with his subsequent research
and publications, extended the theory of subdivision surfaces
and inspired further development of methods that
transformed the way digital artists represent 3D geometry
throughout the motion picture industry.
SCIENTIFIC AND ENGINEERING AWARDS
(ACADEMY PLAQUES)
To David Simons, Daniel Wilk, James Acquavella,
Michael Natkin and David Cotter for the design
and development of the Adobe After Effects software
for motion graphics.
After Effects’ pioneering use of consumer hardware to host an
application that is extensible, efficient and artist-focused has
made it the preeminent motion graphics tool in film
production, allowing motion designers to create complex
animated elements for title design, screen graphics and
fictional user interfaces.
To Thomas Knoll and John Knoll for the original
architecture, design and development, and to Mark
Hamburg for his continued development and
engineering of Adobe Photoshop.
Photoshop’s efficient, extensible architecture, innovative
virtual-memory design and powerful layering system
introduced a new level of user interactivity, which led to its
adoption as the preferred artistic tool for digital painting and

image manipulation across the motion picture industry.
To Ed Catmull for the original concept, and to Tony
DeRose and Jos Stam for their pioneering
advancement of the underlying science of subdivision
surfaces as 3D geometric modeling primitives.
Their creation of essential geometric operations and sustained
research on the fundamental mathematics of subdivision
surfaces helped transform the way digital artists represent 3D
geometry throughout the motion picture industry.
JOHN A. BONNER AWARD (Medallion)

service to the motion picture industry.
