Star Trek veterans Mike and Denise Okuda will be receiving Lifetime Achievement Awards from the Scenic, Title & Graphic Artists at the 26th annual Art Directors Guild Awards, acknowledging their work not just on many iterations of Star Trek and other TV shows, but also in the real world.

“The roots of Graphic Design for Film and TV can be easily traced back to Michael and Denise Okuda and their work on the Star Trek franchise,” said STG Council Chair Clint Schultz. “Through graphic design, the Okudas added a unique visual language to sets, whether it was through props, signage or their graphical user interface for playback (also known as Okudagrams). Additionally, their work on Star Trek led to “real-world” graphic design opportunities and lending their artistic talents to NASA’s various space programs.

“On behalf of the Scenic, Title & Graphic Artists council, we proudly salute the Lifetime Achievements of Michael and Denise Okuda,” he added . “They continue to work and inspire all of us within the craft and are the true definition of teamwork.”

The awards will be presented at the Wilshire Grand Ballroom of the InterContinental Hotel Downtown on March 25, 2022.
