Oscar organizers rolled out the digital red carpet on Monday, unveiling their slogan you're invited for the upcoming film honors, detailing a Web-friendly show and inviting the nominees' mothers to tweet on Hollywood's big night.

At Monday's Oscar nominees luncheon, which is one of the most exclusive of the annual Academy Award gatherings, top stars such as Natalie Portman, Nicole Kidman and Javier Bardem turned out to get their class picture taken, listen to tips on acceptance speeches and rub elbows with fellow stars.

Geoffrey Rush, Jeremy Renner and James Franco also were among 151 nominees gathered to hear Oscar producers Dan Jinks and Don Mischer explain how they want the world's top film honors to feel more inclusive to everyday movie fans.

To make people feel they are invited, producers plan to show much of the program through the eyes of co-hosts James Franco and Anne Hathaway, and they have expanded the pre-show TV segment to introduce the nominees to wider audiences.

The pair expect to include more Internet streaming of events ahead of the awards ceremony, which is why for the first time they streamed the luncheon on the Web.

Most important, the producers are inviting not just the nominees to be part of the show, but also the mominees -- mothers of the nominated stars -- to appear on camera and share stories of the celebrities as real people.

The first thing they are going to be doing is tweeting, said producer Dan Jinks. Now, some of your mom's may not tweet...but we will teach them how to do that.

Jinks, Mischer and Tom Hanks, who appeared in a pre-taped video, admonished stars to make acceptance speeches lively and under 45 seconds, rather than read from a list of 'thank you's.'

We would really urge you to think about creating emotional and meaningful speeches. Those are the ones that work, Mischer said. Speak from the heart. Pulling out a list has just been proven over and over again to be quite boring.

That is probably good advice for the numerous, first-time nominees in the audience, who included the likes of Jennifer Lawrence (Winter's Bone), Jesse Eisenberg (The Social Network) and even Mark Ruffalo (The Kids Are All Right).

Lawrence told reporters that last year at this time her life was a little more boring and that she and a friend of hers have always had a tradition on Oscar night.

We eat linguini and take out, she said. This is the first year I'm going to miss it.
