Indiewire will provide updates of our predictions for the 87th Academy Award nominations through January 2015, when the nominations are announced. Here are our early predictions for the Best Cinematography, where last year's winner -- Emmanuel Lubezki -- the absolute frontrunner. Just as he did last year with "Gravity," his work in "Birdman" opened the Venice Film Festival to universal acclaim and it's hard to imagine it not getting him another nomination, if not another win.
