VES Awards Nominations announced.. which includes a couple of protects I’ve been apart of this year…. “Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows” & “Coca-Cola Siege”
check out the full list of nominations here
……
“Framestore’s winning streak with the Visual Effects Society Awards may continue into 2012 with the news that some of the company’s highly talented artists have been nominated for three awards in categories stretching across features and commercials.”
“Spielberg’s Warhorse has been nominated for the Outstanding Supporting Visual Effects in a Feature Motion Picture award. As the sole provider of visual effects for this critically acclaimed film, Framestore is thrilled that its very own Duncan Burbidge, Ben Morris, Mike Mulholland and Chris Zeh have all been honoured. This category sees a double-whammy Framestore nomination because Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows is the recipient of another nod, with Framestore’s Sirio Quintavalle being one of the four credited talents.
Framestore’s commercials skills have been recognised in the form of an Outstanding Visual Effects in Animated Commercial or Video Game Trailer nomination for the epic 2011 Super Bowl spot, Coca-Cola Siege. Credit here goes to Russell Dodgson, Simon French, Diarmid Harrison-Murray and Sarah Hiddlestone.”
