James Cameron for Best Picture, Best Director and Best Film Editing. After "Titanic", Cameron began a project that took almost 10 years to make: his science-fiction epic "Avatar" (2009), which was in particular a landmark for 3D technology, and for which he received nominations for the same three Academy Awards. Despite "Avatar" being his only movie made to date in 3D, Cameron is the most successful 3D film-maker in terms of box-office revenue. In the time between making "Titanic" and "Avatar", Cameron spent several years creating many documentary films (specifically underwater documentaries) and co-developed the digital 3D Fusion Camera System.
