So, buckle up—because honoring the unsung masters of film crafts isn’t just smart; it’s cosmic timing at its finest. And hey, who wouldn’t want to see a little stardust sprinkled on those visual effects, scores, and killer choreography?
The American Cinematheque has announced its honorees for the 5th annual Tribute to the Crafts, which includes Avatar: Fire and Ash, Frankenstein, Kpop Demon Hunters, Sinners and Weapons, among others.
Tribute to the Crafts “honors those who are at the very heart of filmmaking and have exhibited extraordinary work behind the camera over the past year,” according to American Cinematheque. The evening honors 13 categories across every major craft, and honorees are selected by a jury of journalists, film historians and cinephiles.
Production designer Jack Fisk (Marty Supreme) will receive the Career Achievement Award. His credits include There Will Be Blood, The Revenant, The Tree of Life, Mulholland Drive and Killers of the Flower Moon. This year’s Unsung Hero Award will recognize the late Andrew J. Kuehn Jr, who was a marketing genius behind the reshaping of movie trailers. In honor of Kuehn, the American Cinematheque added a new category for Best Trailer.
“It was an incredible year at the movies, and there is no better place to watch the essential work of the artisans and craftspeople that shaped this year’s films like the cinema. Our jury had plenty of worthy selections to choose from,” says Grant Moninger, the American Cinematheque’s Artistic Director.
The event will take place on Jan. 16 at the Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood.
