    Visual Effects Society (VES) Announces VES Award Nominees

    Los Angeles, CA; January 14, 2005 -- The Visual Effects Society (VES), the entertainment industry's only society of visual effects professionals, today announced nominees for the 3rd Annual VES Awards recognizing outstanding visual effects in nineteen (19) categories of film, television, commercials, music videos and games.

    Nominees were chosen by a panel of over sixty (60) visual effects professionals (all VES members) that viewed hundreds of entry submissions during an all-day event at the Los Angeles Equestrian Center over the weekend.

    The awards process continues with a special annual event on January 22 -- THE BIG REVEAL 2005 -- which is VES' counterpart to the Motion Picture Academy's visual effects "Bake-Off" where nominees demonstrate the secrets behind the visual effects "magic" that earned each artist a place among this year's VES Awards nominees.

    Unlike the Academy's Bake-Off, the Society's "Big Reveal" event won't reduce the number of nominees. However, one major difference between the Bake-Off and the Big Reveal is that the VES allows the inclusion of Before & After materials, enabling the artists to step out from behind the proverbial curtain and share the wizardry of their craft.

    The Big Reveal 2005 is free to VES members and also open to the public at $20 per ticket. Tickets to the event are available by calling the VES office at (310) 822-9181 or may also be purchased at the door.

    For the first time in the VES Awards' three-year history, final viewing and voting will take place online via the VES website from January 31 to February 12.

    This method will allow VES members worldwide to view encrypted clips of the nominees' work and vote in a safe and secure online environment. Only VES members may vote and a special password is required to view and vote online.

    Winners will be announced at the 3rd Annual VES Awards gala on February 16, 2005 at the Hollywood Palladium.

    Academy Award-winning director, Robert Zemeckis, will receive the VES Lifetime Achievement Award, which will be presented to him by Academy Award-winning actor Tom Hanks.

    A complete list of all nominees for the 3rd Annual VES Awards follows and is also available on the VES Awards Web site at http://www.vesawards.com.
