The IATSE Local 892, with about 1,100 members, recognizes designers with three film awards: period, sci-fi/fantasy and contemporary.

"We need to educate the public and our industry as to what we do and how we do it," notes CDG president Salvador Pérez.

The Academy's costume designers branch, numbering 154 members in 2020, determines nominations — which means voters understand the hard work, nuance and detail that goes into, say, the level of cozy texture, shade of eggshell and amount of unraveling threads on an Aran sweater — all hinting at, say, the nature of a ne'er-do-well heir played by Chris Evans in.

No one cares. Few watch the grotesque show anyway.

Good query.. But I'd say no. If contemporary designers can make their pieces stand out enough, they should be allowed to win the original category

What do you expect from people who think hair and make up are the same thing done by the same people?

The Oscars are so watered down now, 10 best picture nominations? It’s become meaningless. I’m glad the streaming things are happening and I didn’t always feel that way. It’s the only only avenue we can still get acting now outside of super hero movies etc

No

no, next?

No, but they do need a Stunts and Casting Category.

Do we even need the Oscars?

Nope. But they need Casting, and Stunts, and I'd throw Voice Acting in there too.

The Oscars gain by having fewer categories. Two for costume design, one for directing? Not sure how that makes sense. And I don't want a second one for directing.

No, they need to cut at least a third of the categories from the list, not add more.

no
