🎥 Alumni Work on Oscar-Nominated Films
Congrats to the 9 Alumni who worked on 9 different Oscar-nominated productions for the 94th Academy Awards
Every year during awards season, The Los Angeles Film School gears up for an exciting season of alumni recognition. We are proud to announce eight alumni worked on nine different Oscar-nominated productions which earned 38 nominations. There is no job too small when contributing to a film production. Our alumni showcased their talents in every area of film production from lighting and camera operation to post-production sound mixing. Each of these roles is vital in making a successful movie. We are honored to highlight this year’s alumni contributions on films that received the highest honor in Hollywood.
Nominees were unveiled in all 23 categories. The list of nominated films includes a mix of streaming and theatrical releases, with Netflix’s The Power of The Dog leading the pack with 12 nominations. Dune came in a close second with 10 nominations, including Best Picture, Best Visual Effects and Best Film Editing. The 94th Academy Awards will air on Sunday, March 27 in Hollywood, CA.
