The Creative Arts Emmys spotlight key technical disciplines and behind-the-scenes crafts, such as production design, casting, cinematography, costumes, hairstyling, makeup, lighting design, music, picture editing, sound editing and mixing, special visual effects, stunts, title design and more.


This marks the third year in which the Creative Arts has been divided into two ceremonies. At the Saturday show, the emphasis was on scripted programming; Sunday honored unscripted and documentary programming.
