2014 Creative Arts Emmys Predictions

0 0

I honestly don’t even know why I am doing these predictions for the Creative Arts Emmys as they are bar none the toughest group of nominees to whittle down. Nevermind the fact that this is crafted from a word doc that was 79 pages long (can the emmys please give us a simple doc with the nominees?), the crazy formatting I had to do, and everything that’s been going on in the country. Anyways, it was a fun distraction and really interesting to see what the TV Academy considers when it comes to technical excellence. Though I expect most of the big boys to finish first, it’s worth noting that at least the TV category nominates all types of genres and stories for its awards.
