How do the Oscars work?
The Academy is made up of more than 9,000 members who work in various aspects of the film industry, including actors, directors, producers, and writers. The voting process for the Oscars is conducted in two rounds. In the first round, members of the Academy are sent a ballot that lists all eligible films in each category. They are then asked to select up to five nominees in each category.
Once the first-round voting is complete, the votes are tallied, and the top five nominees in each category are announced. In the second round of voting, members of the Academy are sent a final ballot that lists the nominees in each category. They are then asked to select one winner in each category.
The votes are then counted, and the winners are announced during the annual Oscar ceremony.
