Society of Camera Operators Awards 2013 – winners

Last night, the Society of Camera Operators held their awards ceremony at the Leonard Goldenson Theatre for their 2013 Society of Camera Operators Awards or "Cammy" Awards.

In the feature film category, Mitch Dubin was honoured for his work on Steven Spielberg's Lincoln. He had been competing against Peter Robertson for Anna Karenina, Duane C. Manwiller for The Hunger Games, Colin Anderson for The Master, and Lukasz Bielan for Life of Pi. Peter Robertson, however, was presented with the previously-announced Historic Shot Award for his work on the Dunkirk Beach Steadicam shot on another Joe Wright film Atonement.

In television, Andrew Voegeli was the winner for Breaking Bad. His competition had been Nick Davidoff for Homeland, Tony Gaudioz for House, Chris Murphy for Newsroom, and Jeff Muhlstock for Smash.

A number of Lifetime Achievement Awards were presented, including to director/actress Penny Marshall and to actress Kyra Sedgwick.
