Gordon Jennings, A.S.C. (1896 – January 11, 1953) was an American special effects artist. He received seven Academy Awards (mainly for Best Special Effects) and was nominated for eight more in the same category. After starting in 1919 in Hollywood as a camera assistant, he worked from 1932 until 1953 on the visual and special effects of more than 180 films.
