Ceremony order and presenters[edit]
The following categories were presented at each ceremony:[5][6]
Ceremony information[edit]
The 72nd Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards were originally scheduled for September 12 and 13, 2020, falling a week before the main ceremony and spreading the awards across two nights as had been done in previous years.[12][13] However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the ceremonies were moved in June to several unspecified nights in a virtual format,[14] with a five-night plan being outlined in early August. The new format divided the ceremonies by genre as follows:[15]
- Monday, September 14: Reality and Nonfiction
- Tuesday, September 15: Variety
- Wednesday, September 16: Scripted (Night One)
- Thursday, September 17: Scripted (Night Two)
- Saturday, September 19: "An eclectic mix of awards across all genres"
The first four ceremonies were streamed on Emmys.com via a YouTube livestream, with the fifth night airing on FXX.[16] All of the virtual ceremonies were produced by Bob Bain Productions,[15] and Nicole Byer served as the host for the event from the Television Academy's headquarters in North Hollywood.[17][18] While events during the ceremony were called live and winners were not known until being revealed to the director, all footage was pre-taped; each nominee was asked to submit an acceptance speech in advance, with only the winners' speeches being broadcast.[19] While the ceremony mostly proceeded without a hitch, one notable error occurred when Jason Bateman was read as the winner for Guest Actor in a Drama Series, while Ron Cephas Jones – the actual winner – was listed on screen.[20] Other glitches included the screen listing "Need Names" instead of recognizing the hairstyling team from Hollywood and an incorrect graphics card for Maya Rudolph's win for Guest Actress in a Comedy Series.[16]
Category and rule changes[edit]
Changes that affected Creative Arts categories included:[21][22][23]
- Outstanding Informational Series or Special was changed to Outstanding Hosted Nonfiction Series or Special.
- Awards for interactive programs were realigned into the new categories of Outstanding Derivative Interactive Program, Outstanding Original Interactive Program, and Outstanding Interactive Extension of a Linear Program.
- Makeup and hairstyling awards were rearranged; the new categories were divided into period and contemporary awards, similar to costume categories.
- Category descriptions for Outstanding Structured Reality Program and Outstanding Unstructured Reality Program were revised.
- Outstanding Children's Program now limited voting to only children's programming and animation peer groups.
- Short-form programs could not exceed 17 minutes in length.
Four categories were also moved to the Creative Arts ceremony from the main ceremony: Outstanding Directing for a Variety Series, Outstanding Writing for a Variety Series, Outstanding Variety Sketch Series, and Outstanding Television Movie.[13]
Notes[edit]
- ^ The outlets listed for each program are the U.S. broadcasters or streaming services identified in the nominations, which for some international productions are different than the broadcaster(s) that originally commissioned the program.
- ^
- Area awards are non-competitive and nominees are considered on their own terms. Any nominee with at least 90% approval (or two-thirds approval for Children's Program) received an Emmy. If no nominee received 90% approval, the nominee with the highest approval received an Emmy; for area awards in picture editing and sound mixing, there was an additional requirement that the highest-rated nominee must have at least 50% approval to receive an Emmy.[2]
- Juried awards generally do not have nominations; instead, all entrants were screened before members of the appropriate peer group, and one, more than one, or no entry was awarded an Emmy based on the jury's vote.[2]
