The top award for Motion Picture – Live Action went to Les Miserables for its complex and demanding requirements arising from director Tom Hooper's ambitious goal of recording the singing live, and without any pre-recorded tracks or accompaniment.
Typically, musicals are filmed with lip-synching and all of the music is from pre-recorded tracks. Hooper had them sing live to a keyboard accompanist, allowing them to be more free with their timing and acting, with excellent results including Anne Hathaway's famed rendition of "I Dreamed a Dream." Microphones were placed on both shoulders of the actors and removed digitally afterwards. Orchestral accompaniment was added after editing.
The winner in the Motion Picture – Animated category was the Disney film Brave.
The CAS Career Achievement Award was presented to Production Sound Mixer Chris Newman and the CAS Filmmaker Award went to director Jonathan Demme.
