  • Summary

  • It’s Academy Awards time, honouring the best movies and performances from last year - and behind the scenes, the nominees and their teams have been working hard to curry favour with Oscar voters in what’s become known as Oscar campaigns. These have become a large, expensive and controversial part of the industry, so in this Squiz Shortcut, we’ll look at what goes on in an Oscar campaign, how it’s played into this year’s award season, and who might win as a result… Squiz Recommends: Listening: This Oscars episode of the NPR podcast Planet Money really goes into the nitty-gritty of how the campaigns work. Watching: And for something a bit lighter, the mockumentary For Your Consideration satirises the whole process from the point of view of people who have gone through it - and if you needed another reason, it stars the brilliant Catherine O’Hara. You can watch the Academy Awards Monday morning (11am AEDT) on Channel 7. Squiz Shortcuts is your back story to the big news stories… Want the email version? Sign up for the Shortcuts newsletter here
