award presented annually by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, located in Beverly Hills, California. It honors outstanding achievement by a cinematographer in a movie from a given year, as determined by the academy’s voting members.
At the inaugural Academy Awards ceremony, in 1929, the award recognized the work in films released from August 1, 1927, to August 1, 1928. The next 5 ceremonies honored work in films released from August to July. Beginning with the 7th ceremony (1935), only work in movies released the previous calendar year was eligible for consideration. In the 9th through 11th ceremonies (1936–38), a special award was given for color cinematography, and from the 12th to the 39th ceremonies (1939–66), except for the 30th ceremony (1957), separate Academy Awards were given for color and black-and-white cinematography. The winning cinematographers are given a gold-plated statuette known as an Oscar.
