The American Film Institute (AFI) Awards are the awards presented by the institute in question to recognize the top 10 TV series and movies of the year. Last years submissions and winners were quite interesting and we don’t doubt that this year will be any different. The AFI Awards 2023 are set to select their winners on January 5th of 2024. They revealed this on Wednesday, also adding that it will take place at the Four Seasons Hotel Los Angeles at Beverly Hills. This event will be honorees-only.
How are the AFI Award selections made?
The American Film Institute makes its selections through a jury process which is comprised of artists, critics, scholars and AFI trustees. The AFI also announced that deadlines for submissions will be announced in a few weeks and the honorees that will get the chance to attend this glorious event will be announced in December 2023. It is known that AFI Awards is the only national award program that ‘honors creative teams as a whole’, recognizing both of those who in front of and behind the camera.
“All of the honored works advance the art of the moving image, inspire audiences and artists alike, and enhance the rich cultural heritage of America’s art form. When placed in a historical context, these stories provide a complex and rich visual record of our modern world.”
