LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com) - "Skyfall," "The Hobbit," "Zero Dark Thirty," "Les Miserables" and "Lincoln" are the feature films nominated for the top award by the Cinema Audio Society, a non-profit organization that honors the art of sound mixing in film and television.
For the first time, CAS also nominated five animated films for their sound mixing. In that category, one stranger to awards season, "The Lorax," joined more expected nominees "Brave," "Frankenweenie," "Rise of the Guardians" and "Wreck-It Ralph."
In the television category, nominees included episodes of the one-hour series "Boardwalk Empire," "Breaking Bad," "Game of Thrones," "Homeland" and "Mad Men," the half-hour series "30 Rock," "Californication," "Modern Family," "Nurse Jackie" and "The Office," and the movies and miniseries "American Horror Story," "Game Change," "Hatfields & McCoys," "Hemingway & Gellhorn" and "Sherlock."
CAS is one of two groups that gives awards for sound work. Its awards - made in two film and four TV categories - are minimal compared to the nearly 20 categories handed out by the Motion Picture Sound Editors, who will announce their nominations in mid-January.
Since 2000, almost 75 percent of the films nominated by the Cinema Audio Society have gone on to receive Oscar nods in the sound mixing category.
In the press release announcing the nominations, CAS president David E. Fluhr noted that the organization is now in its fourth year of online voting, adding that the voting "went smoothly and was a secure and uncomplicated procedure for our members."
The CAS ceremony will take place on February 16 at the Millennium Biltmore Hotel in downtown Los Angeles. At the show, the CAS Career Achievement Award will be presented to Chris Newman, and the CAS Filmmaker Award will go to director Jonathan Demme.
