The first activity for the Awards Season Journey was to have members vote on the 2022 awards. This was our version of a “pre-test.” We wanted to get an understanding of our member’s tastes and whether they aligned with the Academy. While there was a lot of love for winners of last year, as you’ll see below, they did not exactly align. We appreciate the thoughtfulness and level of engagement that went into participating in this poll.
We will also be voting for the Oscar nominees this week after the announcement, and we have plenty else in store until the ceremony.
