The Academy Award for Best Cinematography is an Academy Award awarded each year to a cinematographer for work in one particular motion picture. ==History== In its first film season, 1927–28, this award (like others such as the acting awards) was not tied to a specific film; all of the work by the nominated cinematographers during the qualifying period was listed after their names. The problem with this system became obvious the first year, since Karl Struss and Charles Rosher were nominated for their work together on ''Sunrise'' but three other films shot individually by either Rosher or Struss were also listed as part of the nomination. The second year, 1929, there were no nominations at all, although the Academy has a list of unofficial titles which were under consideration by the Board of Judges. In the third year, 1930, films, not cinematographers, were nominated, and the final award did not show the cinematographer's name. Finally, for the 1931 awards, the modern system in which individuals are nominated for a single film each was adopted in all profession-related categories. From 1939 to 1967 (with the single exception of 1957), there were also separate awards for color and for black-and-white cinematography. Since then, the only black-and-white film to win is ''Schindler's List'' (1993). Floyd Crosby won the award for ''Tabu'' in 1931, which was the last silent film to win in this category. Hal Mohr won the only write-in Academy Award ever, in 1935 for ''A Midsummer Night's Dream''. Mohr was also the first person to win for both black-and-white and color cinematography. No winners are lost, although some of the earliest nominees (and of the unofficial nominees of 1928–29) are lost, including ''The Devil Dancer'' (1927), ''The Magic Flame'' (1927), and ''Four Devils'' (1928). ''The Right to Love'' (1930) is incomplete, and ''Sadie Thompson'' (1927) is incomplete and partially reconstructed with stills. The first nominees to be shot primarily on digital video were ''The Curious Case of Benjamin Button'' and ''Slumdog Millionaire'' in 2009, with ''Slumdog Millionaire'' the first winner.〔http://digitalfilms.wordpress.com/2009/01/24/oscar-nominations/〕 The following year ''Avatar'' was the first nominee and winner to be shot entirely on digital video.〔http://filmschoolrejects.com/features/oscar-breakdown-best-cinematography.php〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Academy Award for Best Cinematography」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
