The 76th Annual Academy Awards competition began in earnest on May 27 when the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences mailed application forms for the 2003 Scientific and Technical Awards. Entry forms were sent to more than 850 companies and individuals, including past winners, within the sci-tech community both in the United States and abroad.
