The Oscars are struggling for equilibrium after ratings hit in the last few years
The Oscars are struggling for equilibrium after a ratings hit in the last few years. Eight awards will not be presented live at the ceremony next month - and a new populist prize will be given out based on fan votes. Variety reports that of the 23 categories of the 94th Academy Awards, the Oscars for these will be presented off-air and edited into the telecast - Documentary Short, Film Editing, Hair and Makeup, Original Score, Production Design, Animated Short, Live Action Short and Sound. This shortening of the ceremony has been savaged on social media, compounded by the introduction of the Oscars Fan Favourite and Oscars Cheer Moment - prizes that will be awarded on the basis of fan votes via tweets or on a special site. Imagine winning an Academy Award and you're dumped from the telecast to make way for CINDERELLA to win the Fan Favorite award. #PresentAll23#Oscars Dear @TheAcademy,You can give away the Best Editing, Production Design, Sound, and Makeup/Hairstyling #Oscars off-camera.But only if you do the whole show in one static shot.Of an empty stage.Without sound.And none of the presenters can wear makeup or do their hair. This is truly the ultimate insult to the art of filmmaking. Without score, makeup, hair, editing, sound, production design you would have nothing. Why distort the show? ARE YOU REALLY going to Edit Joe Walker and Hank Corwin and Myron Kerstein? #Oscars Putting any category outside of the live #Oscars broadcast is bullshit but FILM EDITING? The #Oscars are the only big awards show where artists who make short films are recognized just like big stars. If you remove those categories then it will be like shorts don't even exist for general people. @TheAcademy should respect all nominees and movie lovers. #PresentAll23 In the last 10 years, the only tie that happened at the #Oscars was in the Sound category.Sir Ennio Morricone's overdue Oscar speech in 2015.Meryl's tribute to her makeup artist when they both won in 2011.We need to see these moments live as they happen.#PresentAll23
