Emmy Awards are formal awards given out annually in recognition of achievements in television. In addition to show honors for best drama and comedy and individual honors for acting, writing, and direction, technical awards are also presented for editing and camerawork. Emmy Awards are distributed at multiple different ceremonies by a trio of different organizations: the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (NATAS), the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (the Television Academy), and the International Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (IATAS). Each ceremony is geared toward a particular type of television viewing, such as prime-time, daytime, news, and international programming. The first Emmy Awards ceremony was held on January 25, 1949, and was specifically focused on television produced in the Los Angeles area. Since that time, the Emmy Awards have come to join the Academy Awards as one of the most well-known and widely watched Hollywood award ceremonies. |
