2012 Art Directors Guild Awards - winners
The Art Directors Guild (ADG) held its 16th Annual Excellence in Production Design Awards in nine categories of film, television, commercials and music videos at the International Ballroom of the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills. For the third year in a row, Paula Poundstone hosted the show.
For film, the winners were Hugo designed by Dante Ferretti (Period Film); Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 by Stuart Craig (Fantasy Film); and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Donald Graham Burt (Contemporary Film).
Television winners were Bill Groom for Boardwalk Empire, Mark Friedberg for Mildred Pierce, Richard Berg for Modern Family, and the designers for Saturday Night Live and the 83rd Annual Academy Awards.
Production Designer Tony Walton received the Lifetime Achievement Award, while Robert Boyle, William Darling, and Alfred Junge were inducted into the Hall of Fame. The team from the Harry Potter films, including Executive Producer David Heyman, Producer David Barron; directors Christopher Columbus, Alfonso Cuaron, Mike Newell, and David Yates; creator and author J.K. Rowling; screenwriters Steve Kloves and Michael Goldenberg; production designer Stuart Craig; art director Neil Lamont and set decorator Stephenie McMillan, were honoured for Outstanding Contribution to Cinematic Imagery.
ADG Awards are open only to productions, when made within the U.S., by producers signatory to the IATSE agreement. Foreign entries are acceptable without restrictions. The Art Directors Guild (IATSE Local 800) represents nearly 2,000 members who work throughout the United States, Canada and the rest of the world in film, television and theater as Production Designers, Art Directors, and Assistant Art Directors; Scenic, Title and Graphic Artists; Illustrators and Matte Artists; Set Designers and Model Makers and Previs Artists.
Confusingly, the terms Production Design and Art Direction are used synonymously in the film and television industry for those who conceive of the look and style of everything in front of the camera. However, on productions where there are people in both positions, the Production Designer is considered the highest ranking individual in the art department.
