PRESIDENT’S report / 2023
T
his was a good year for the International Academy, despite all the challenges of labor strife and armed conflict around the world. With US writers and actors on strike for much of the year, television production came to a halt, though all the strikes ended shortly before the 51st International Emmy® Awards Gala, permitting that event to go forward as originally planned.
PRESIDENT & CEO BRUCE PAISNER
The International Academy has grown to nearly 1,000 members, with increased representation in parts of the world where we had little visibility before. This growth is the result of both the increasing impact and relevance of the Academy, and an organized and sustained campaign to add candidates by members of our board and the Academy staff. In June, we organized another of our signature Academy Days, this time in Istanbul, Turkey under the sponsorship of Ay Yapim and its CEO, Kerem Çatay. The event was very successful with participation from much of the creative community in Istanbul and a stunning closing party at the new Istanbul Peninsula Hotel. Other major sponsor activities included an extension of our long-term partnership with TV Globo in Brazil and a Board Meeting hosted by Robert Halmi at the newly built Great Point Studios in Yonkers, New York. We held 30 local judgings, with the participation of Academy members and jurors around the world, and these judgings produced the nominees who competed for International Emmys at the Gala.

BRUCE PAISNER & KEREM ÇATAY AT ACADEMY DAY IN ISTANBUL
The annual Gala again took place at the end of November at the Hilton Hotel in New York City. We presented Emmys in 14 categories, including our new category, Sports Documentary. Highlights of the Gala were the presentation of two special awards, the Founders® Emmy Award to Jesse Armstrong, the creator and writer of Succession, and the Directorate Emmy® Award to Ekta Kapoor, a major force in television in India. Jesse Armstrong was a particularly strong presence at our events this year. He took part in our luncheon panel the day of the Gala and spoke eloquently when he received the Founders Emmy® at the Gala. During the weekend before the Gala, all of these programs were on display at the International Emmy® World Festival at the Sofitel Hotel in New York. Many of the programs were accompanied by their creators or cast who explained the ideas behind their programs and spoke to Academy Members at a series of Nominee panels. The Academy is a non-profit organization, which relies on member dues and sponsors for its funding. Among the blue-chip sponsors who extended their contracts this year were TV Globo and Globoplay of Brazil and Ay Yapim of Turkey. Other new sponsors are expected
to sign up during 2024. Key to its operation is a small and dedicated staff, led by Camille Bidermann who has been Executive Director of the organization for many years. The staff is backed up by an Executive Committee of Television industry veterans who contribute mightily to the organization on a pro bono basis. My thanks go to its members Fred Cohen (Chairman), Bruce Tuchman (Secretary), Kevin Beggs (Treasurer), Piv Bernth, Adina Pitt, Armando Nuñez Jr, and Abbe Raven. I want to salute my colleagues at Hearst, who have supported my work at the International Academy throughout my tenure. I particularly want to thank Steven R. Swartz, Hearst President & CEO, and Steve’s predecessor as CEO, Frank A. Bennack Jr., the Executive Vice Chairman of Hearst. Steve has always provided invaluable support and guidance to me and the Academy. Frank hired me at Hearst many years ago and has been a source of inspiration ever since. And finally, I want to extend my gratitude to the Academy Directors for entrusting me with the role of President and CEO. Our members are a unique group of lively informed people from around the world who care about television and the work they do to make it better. That caring and dedication has enhanced and strengthened the International Academy.

WATCH TRAILER
Q A With Vir Das Executive Producer of Vir Das: Landing
Q Where are you going to keep your Emmy®? I think I’m going to keep it on my desk at home. Sort of a gentle reminder to work hard and to stay authentic. Not sure if it’s very prestigious to have an Emmy® standing next to a picture of a bulldog and an oat milk cappuccino, but that’s where she is going. I’m also very seriously considering the windowsill, almost like an Emmy® needs sunshine, but I’m afraid I’ll get robbed. Q Tell us about the importance of winning an Emmy®? I think it validated that comedy can be honest and emotional and intentional. I’ve always seen comedy as a central feeling and a deeper connection with an audience that transcends nationalities. Something like
this means someone in Brazil, or someone in Tokyo caught and felt what I was trying to say as an Indian. It meant the world to be voted for by the world. It gives me the strength to believe I have a global voice. Q What upcoming projects are you or would you like to be working on next? I’m touring the world this year to 33 countries, co-directing my first feature that I’ll star in, and should be seen in two Indian series and an American series as an actor. Somewhere in there I want to find time to make some music. But you know what they say, if you want to see how funny the universe is, tell it your plans.

Q Where are you going to keep your Emmy®? After giving it some thought, I’ve concluded that the living room is the ideal place for my Emmy®. It’s nicely displayed and lit by a nearby spotlight that highlights its details. This setup creates a perfect harmony between my wife’s interior design aesthetics and the significance of the award as she usually stores other trophies away in a closet. Joke aside, this arrangement is a daily reminder of the story we told. Q Tell us about the importance of winning an Emmy®? Winning an Emmy® is a significant achievement that means excellence and recognition from my colleagues. However, it’s crucial to understand that this prestigious award is not the terminus of a professional journey, but rather a remarkable milestone along the way.
An Emmy® win undeniably attracts attention, instills confidence, and opens doors to new opportunities. Yet, this recognition also brings a kind of pressure — a drive to not only maintain but also to push the level of excellence already achieved. In other words maintaining that standard is definitely more challenging than winning the award itself. Q What upcoming projects are you or would you like to be working on next? Looking ahead, the focus is to deliver longer projects while keeping the DNA of Off The Grid program. This means looking for investigative, indepth and nuanced testimonies, as well as exploring creative filming and directing techniques. I believe this approach should resonate with the audience’s expectations for high-quality and impactful storytelling. But for now it’s too early to say what’s next.

2023 SIR PETER USTINOV TELEVISION SCRIPTWRITING AWARD WINNER: OMAR KAHN, POCKET MAN
This year’s winner, from the UK, is Omar Khan for his script, Pocket Man. Omar Khan is a 27-year-old, British Pakistani writer actor who has been quietly building a large network of industry relationships through relentless cold calling and proactivity. This tenacity recently resulted in this London based creative’s first short film, which he wrote and starred in, funded by Netflix through UK based production company Fully Focused. After screening this film to a room comprised largely of his own network he’d amassed, he
received the opportunity to perform some of his original writing on the West End with the National Youth Theatre – where he is a member as an actor - before receiving his first commission as a playwright with them with the run of his first play scheduled for Spring 2024. Omar is eager to tell fresh, relatable, and engaging stories certainly making him a creative to keep an eye on in the years to come. A prolific writer having written plays, series pilots, full length features, short stories, Omar’s style traverse all genres but what remains constant is the sharp dialogue he employs. Whether he explores grief in a horror film or romantic relationships in a twisted road trip between two outsiders. Whether it be friendship and chosen family in a sitcom pilot or generational trauma in a character study, Omar draws inspiration from his real life to write characters that are, above all, honest. Omar likens his stories to life and with life, there is no one genre. Laced with black comedy, even the saddest stories have a touch of levity. Moments are happy and sad, funny and tragic and all within moments of each other. This authenticity of Omar’s primary concern when writing any genre and is something that is supremely palpable in his work. About Pocket Man When trauma causes a 1st generation Pakistani immigrant to flee his homeland, pressure from his back home and the desire to adopt a child with his wife lead him to use his skills as a circus performer to aid a local gang in their crimes.
