Former visualization students from Texas A&M made major contributions to "Up," the Walt Disney Pictures and Pixar Animation Studios summer smash that received a best picture nomination Feb. 2 from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
The academy also nominated the film, which had 18 Aggies in the credits, for Best Animated Feature Film.
It's already been a good awards season for "Up," which won a Golden Globe from the Hollywood Foreign Press Association Jan. 17 for Best Animated Feature Film.
The Oscars will be awarded March 7.
