The César Award for Best Visual Effects (French: César des meilleurs effets visuels) is an award presented annually by the Académie des Arts et Techniques du Cinéma since 2022.
Background[edit]
In September 2021, the governing association of the César Awards voted to create two new awards for Best Visual Effects and Best Documentary Short Film, both of which were introduced in the 47th ceremony. The visual effects category was established with the desire to "salute the excellence of French creativity through the work of a film's visual effects supervisors."[1][2]
