Always the Competition

Pixar and DreamWorks Animation duke it out again:

DreamWorks Animation and rival Pixar animation both have two scientific and technical achievements that are currently being considered for awards by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.

The Academy's Sci-Tech Awards Committee said Friday that 15 methods and devices have been selected for further awards consideration. ...

After all the entries are investigated, the committee will meet in early December to vote on recommendations to the Academy's board of governors, which will make the final awards decisions. ...

And now it's time for the trolls and pixies to come out and dump on their least favorite animation studio. So forest sprites and affiliated hangers-on, over to you!

Strange that Alembic didn't get mentioned. I keep trying to find more info on it. Maybe that's why?
