Issued to coincide with the 75th anniversary celebration of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, these stamps honor American filmmaking — all of those multi- talented, highly skilled men and women who work behind the scenes to create moving magic. As can be seen in the long list of credits trailing every motion picture, filmmaking is a uniquely collaborative endeavor, requiring the vision, expertise, and best efforts of scores of artists and crafts persons. Text on the back of each stamp describes the responsibilities, skills, and talents of people involved in one particular area of filmmaking.
