Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciencs (AMPAS)

Andy Maltz

• The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, the world’s preeminent movie-related organization, is composed of more than 10,000 accomplished professional men and women working in cinema. The Academy’s Science and Technology Council leads the organization’s motion picture science and technology initiatives, and had a very active agenda over the last year despite the global situation. This session will highlight the Council’s work in virtual production education, the new Academy Digital Preservation Forum, advances in the Academy Color Encoding system, and anything else session attendees found interesting in this year’s Progress Issue article and what’s happened since its publication.
