Thank You to the Semi-Final Round of Judging Hosts Jurors
48TH INTERNATIONAL EMMY® AWARDS SEMI-FINAL ROUND OF JUDGING HOSTS
This Summer, the Semi-Final Round of Judging for the 2020 International Emmy® Awards competition took place mostly online, for the first time. From July to September, 26 Member companies hosted jury panels. Our hosts span 20 countries: Argentina, Australia, Austria, Brazil, Cyprus, Denmark, France, Germany, India, Mexico, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, PR China, Russia, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, and The United States. The online judgings were powered by the Frame.io video review and collaboration platform. Semi-Final Rounds of Judging are not only a crucial step in the judging process, but also a great networking opportunity for the Host, and for Jurors invited to participate in the competition. Jurors, selected by the Academy in collaboration with the Host, are television professionals involved in all sectors of the industry. Hosts have the opportunity to choose from two options: to organize a judging with sole branding for their company or to have outside sponsors for their event and become an International Emmy® World Television Festival Sponsor. A complete directory of the 2020 judging hosts and participants follows in this section along with information on how to become a Semi-Final Round of Judging Host, or Juror.
