Autodesk Media and Entertainment technology has played a pivotal role in the creation of some of the most iconic and breathtaking movie imagery over the past two decades.

In the Best Visual Effects category, all five film nominees The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey,Life of Pi, Marvels The Avengers, Prometheus, and Snow White and the Huntsman used Autodesk software. This will be the 18th consecutive year Autodesk has had that distinction. The five nominated movies contained a combined 7,754 visual effects shots and involved the work of 30 visual effects studios using Autodesk software (many of whom worked on multiple films) in more than 10 countries.

This year, a record-setting 21 animated films were eligible for nomination in the Best Animated Feature category. The five nominees all used Autodesk Maya 3D animation and visual effects software. The nominees include two 3D animated features Brave and Wreck-It Ralph and three stop-motion movies: Frankenweenie, ParaNorman, and The Pirates! Band of Misfits.”

Autodesk software also played a role in the creation of a number of other movies nominated this year including Amour, Argo, Buzkashi Boys, Flight, Les Misérables, Lincoln, Paperman, Silver Linings Playbook, Skyfall, Ted and Zero Dark Thirty.”
