		The Awards are granted by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, a professional honorary organization which as of 2003 had a voting membership of 5816, with actors, with a membership of 1311, making up the largest voting block.
		Academy Awards are nicknamed "Oscars", which is also the nickname of the statuette (the name is said to have been born when Academy librarian Margaret Herrick saw the statuette on a table and said: "It looks just like my uncle Oscar!").
		The awards were first given at a banquet in the Blossom Room of the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel on May 16, 1929 but there was little suspense since the winners of the awards had already been announced three months earlier on February 18.

	In Contention \| “Tech Support” by Gerard Kennedy: Art Direction Archives
		The Academy Award for Best Art Direction is annually presented to two notable individuals from the victorious film’s art department: the production designer, responsible for set creation and design, and the set decorator, largely in charge of the details and knick knacks that bring a given set to life.
		A film’s art department is not only assigned the responsibility of creating sets and props appropriate and serving of a film’s narrative, but they also need to make sure these sets and props can physically withstand the process of shooting the film.
		Some of the best art direction of the year is on display in “Running with Scissors”: quirky, clever, original and, most importantly, film-serving.

		These students are soon disillusioned when such skills are ridiculed in "art schools" and "art departments" everywhere except in the 64 ARC Approved® schools.
		As a result, many of the potentially most talented art students in the past 80 years were negatively impacted and wound up choosing other fields of endeavor, while the students who had the "find-a-gimmick-to-make-a-mint" mentality were the ones graduating with degrees in art.
		Now finally, the truly talented are readily finding the best available instruction here through our resources at the Art Renewal Center website, and www.artrenewal.org has become the most popular of Internet art and museum websites, attracting over 500,000,000 hits per year from supporters around the world.

	Michigan Theater - Summer Classic Film Series
		The Best of the Best at the Best: this summer the Michigan Theater is proud to present our summer classic film series.
		From her young, innocent days on a feudalistic plantation to the war-torn streets of Atlanta; from her first love whom she has always desired to three husbands; from the utmost luxury to absolute starvation and poverty; from her innocence to her understanding and comprehension of life.
		Directed by the legendary Ishirô Honda, Gojira (its original title, a mixture of the Japanese words for "gorilla" and "whale") is much darker in tone than the U.S. release edition, which de-emphasized the film's underlying theme of burgeoning nuclear menace, effectively obscuring a narrative meant as a cry for world peace and disarmament.
