A Look At My 2024 Awards Voting Ballot
Full Discretion On How I Plan To/Have Voted For The 2024 Awards Season
INTRODUCTION
We’re right in the thick of the 2024 awards season which will be my third year in which I will be submitting my ballot in various categories for the CACF, IFSC, and PRCA Awards. As a matter of full discretion I will be posting the ballots that will, or have, guided me in my votes.
Because certain films or performances may not be eligible for one group or the other, I’ve decided to post personal ballots with an alternative sixth choice in every category just in case. Not to mention six slots for categories is becoming an increasingly popular thing to do, and I think the Oscars may not be too far behind from doing it themselves.
There’s also a few extra categories not covered here that I will be voting for depending on the critics group, but obviously these ballots will guide me to some extent for those as well.
