• Matt Celeskey
• A group of paleontologists
• A Hollywood studio

The Lanzendorf PaleoArt Prize is sponsored by:

• The New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science
• National Geographic
• The Society of Vertebrate Paleontology
• Picturing the Past organization
• The University of California

Paleoart requires understanding of:

• Economics and finance
• Anatomy and biology
• Computer programming
• Ancient languages
• Modern architecture

Beth Zaiken is associated with:

• National Geographic
• Blue Rhino Studio
• New Mexico Museum
• Lanzendorf PaleoArt Prize
