Television Academy Announces Winners for Creative Arts Emmys Including Interactive Media

North Hollywood, CA, USA (September 10, 2015) — The Television Academy has announced the juried award winners for the 67th Emmy Awards in the categories of Animation, Costumes for a Variety Program or Special, Motion Design and Interactive Media.

The juried awards will be presented during the Creative Arts Emmy Awards ceremony on Saturday, September 12.

Juried categories require all entrants to be screened by a panel of professionals in the peer group, with the possibility of one, more than one or no entry being awarded an Emmy.  As a consequence, there are no nominees, but instead a one-step evaluation and voting procedure.

Deliberations include an open discussion of each entrant’s work, with a thorough review of the merits of awarding the Emmy. At the conclusion of each deliberation, the jury considers the question, “Is this entry worthy of an Emmy award – yea or nay?” Only those with unanimous approval win.

This year’s juried winners include:
