Not sure, but I believe sound has something to do with choices of sound and sound editing is matching the sounds and eliminating needless feedback. :-\\

Makeup.

If all these actors and actresses are able to insure there faces and what not for millions of dollars, then chances are they ain't that ugly to begin with.

Editing of any kind should be in the technical show earlier in the week.

It deals with things like camera angles, focusing, framing of a shot. Basically, it's how artistic the shots and views of the film are.

Granted, those categories make for tedious viewing on the night...but IMO, the behind the scenes efforts of the technical and production teams should be recognised at some point.  :)

Perhaps as Tanya suggested, earlier in the week, in the technical show...???

Boring to some but to the people that win those awards it's the night of their life.
No hype. No egos. Just for the most part "normal" people winning some recognition for their work.

I do like watching and listening to the acceptance speeches of all the winners and most of the time it's these winners that give the best and most interesting ones.

Question: Is just my imagination, but do the women award winners (I'm talking about the actresses) always give the WORST acceptance speeches ? It seems like what they say is getting more stupid every year. Or maybe I'm just thinking of Sally Field and Halle Berry ??  ::)
