NORTH HOLLYWOOD, CA -- The Television Academy has announced the juried award winners in Animation for the 68th Emmy Awards. The juried awards for Animation will be presented on Sunday, September 11, at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, California. This year’s juried winners include:

Juried categories require all entrants to be screened by a panel of professionals in the appropriate peer group, with the possibility of one, more than one, or no entry being awarded an Emmy. As a consequence, there are no nominees but rather a one-step evaluation and voting procedure. Deliberations include open discussions of each entrant’s work, with a thorough review of the merits of awarding the Emmy. At the conclusion of each deliberation, the jury considers the question, “Is this entry worthy of an Emmy award -- yea or nay?” Only those with unanimous approval win.

The 2016 Creative Arts Emmy Awards, executive produced by Bob Bain, will be held over two nights at the Microsoft Theater from 5:00 PM - 7:30 PM on both Saturday, September 10, and Sunday, September 11. FXX will broadcast the awards on Saturday, September 17, from 8:00 - 10:30 PM (ET/PT) with an encore from 10:30 PM - 1:00 AM (ET/PT).
