The Academy of Motion Pictures Arts & Sciences has announced their nominations for the coveted Oscar award. Receiving nominations for best animated short were Michael Dudok de Wit's lyrically elegant "Father & Daughter," Steffen and Annette Schaffler's moody puppet film "The Periwig-Maker" and Don Hertzfeldt's humorously chaotic short "Rejected." This year, again, AWN will be the place to go to discover all the animation nominees. Films are featured on AWN with 15-30 second QuickTime clips, a brief summary of the film, pictures and the director's thoughts. Plus, you can vote for which one you think should be the big winner on awards night. We will announce our winner the day of the Oscars and see if the knowledgeable readership of AWN is right on target. Last year we were, for the third year in a row an overwhelming number of AWN visitors chose the ultimately victorious "The Old Man And The Sea." See the creme de la creme, and then express yourself and cast a vote!
