The Technical Awards will be presented at the 45th Annual CAS Awards Dinner on February 14 in the Crystal Ballroom of the Millennium-Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles. Honorees at the event include Dennis L. Maitland, CAS, who will receive the Career Achievement Award, and Paul Mazursky, who will receive the Filmmaker Award.
