New York – February 19, 2019 – The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS) today announced the Digital Drama Series Pre-Nominations for the 46th Annual Daytime Emmy®Awards.
The process used to determine the Pre-Nominated Digital Drama Series follows:
An online judging ballot containing all entrants in the category was sent to all registered, eligible peer judges. The ballot contained a randomized order of the Digital Drama Series in the category. Judges were required to view clips online containing the work of each series before selecting their top 10 series choices in the category.
Ballots were submitted directly to Lutz & Carr, Inc., an independent accounting firm, who tabulated the results. The candidates below who received the highest number of votes now advance to the blue ribbon screening round, scheduled to begin on February 21, 2019, which will determine both nominees and recipients. Nominations will be announced on Wednesday, March 20, 2019, live on “The Talk” on CBS.
