Refresh for latest: The Visual Effects Society is handing out its 2024 VES Awards tonight at the Beverly Hilton, and Deadline is posting the winners as they are revealed. Check out the running list below.
Disney’s The Creator and Sony’s Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse come into the 22nd annual ceremony with a leading seven nominations apiece, and neither wasted any time in hoarding the hardward. Spidey won the night’s first film prize, for Outstanding Created Environment in an Animated Feature, and The Creator followed with the category’s Photoreal Feature prize for the film’s floating village.
The Creator also is up for Best Visual Effects at next month’s 96th Academy Awards, vying against Godzilla Minus One, Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 and Napoleon. The latter two also are nominated for top VES film awards. Across the Spider-Verse will compete for the Animated Feature Oscar.
The VES Awards and Movie Academy haven’t exactly seen camera eye-to-eye during the past decade, with only five of the Visual Effects Society’s marquee winners going on to score Oscars since 2013. They did agree on Avatar: The Way of Water and Dune in the past two years but differed in the previous three. Blade Runner 2049 (2107), The Jungle Book (2016) and Gravity (2013) also turned both tricks in the past 10 years.
HBO’s The Last of Us, which came into the ceremony with a TV-leading half-dozen nominations, won the night’s first small-screen award, for Outstanding Created Environment in an Episode, Commercial, Game Cinematic or Real-Time Project.
Avatar and Titanic VFX producer Joyce Cox will receive the VES’ Lifetime Achievement Award tonight, and William Shatner is beaming in for the 2024 VES Award for Creative Excellence.
Comic and SNL alum Jay Pharoah is hosting the show after serving as a presenter last year. “Ironically, the strikes ended just in time for awards season,” he quipped.
