The ceremony, televised in the United States by ABC, was produced by Jesse Collins, Stacey Sher, and Steven Soderbergh, and was directed by Glenn Weiss.[8][9] The Academy Scientific and Technical Awards were presented by host Nia DaCosta on February 13, 2021, in a virtual ceremony.[10]

The telecast garnered 10.4 million viewers, making it theleast watched Oscar broadcast since 1974 when Nielsen began keeping records of viewership.

Originally in April 2017, the Academy had scheduled the 93rd ceremony for February 28, 2021.[24] However, due to the impacts stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic on both cinema and television, the the AMPAS Board of Governors decided to move the date for the 2021 gala by two months to April 25.[25] However, the annual Academy Governors Awards and corresponding nominees luncheon were canceled due to COVID-19 safety concerns.[26] This marked the first time since the 60th ceremony held in 1988 that the awards were held in April.[27] It also was the first time since the 53rd ceremony in 1981 that the ceremony was postponed from its original date.[28]
In December 2020, the Academy hired television producer Jesse Collins, film producer Stacey Sher, and Oscar-winning director Steven Soderbergh to oversee production of the telecast. “The upcoming Oscars is the perfect occasion for innovation and for re-envisioning the possibilities for the awards show. This is a dream team who will respond directly to these times. The Academy is excited to work with them to deliver an event that reflects the worldwide love of movies and how they connect us and entertain us when we need them the most,” remarked Academy president David Rubin and CEO Dawn Hudson.[29]
AMPAS christened this year's telecast with the theme "Bring Your Movie Love" with organizers stating that the purpose of this year's ceremony was to celebrate "Our global appreciation for the power of film to foster connection, to educate, and to inspire us to tell our own stories."[30] In tandem with the theme, the Academy hired seven artists to create custom posters for the event inspired by the question, "What do movies mean to you?”[31] Furthermore, the ceremony was filmed at the traditional cinematic frame rate of 24 frames per-second, as opposed to 30, and in a cinematic aspect ratio rather than the standard 16:9 aspect ratio used by most television programming.[32]
As a results of concerns stemming from the pandemic, AMPAS announced that the main ceremony would be held for the first time at Union Station in Downtown Los Angeles with portions of the festivities taking place at Dolby Theatre in Hollywood.[33] To satisfy health and safety protocols, the Academy limited the number of people attending the gala to primarily nominees and presenters.[34][35] Furthermore, attendees were asked to submit travel plans to Oscar organizers prior to arriving in Los Angeles and undergo multiple COVID-19 tests and isolation ten days prior to the event.[36] In consideration of overseas nominees unable to attend the ceremony, producers set up sattelite "hubs" such as at BFI Southbank in London where they could participate in the gala.[37][38]
Several other people participated in the production of the ceremony. The Roots musician and The Tonight Show bandleader Questlove served as musical director for the ceremony.[39] He, along with Oscars red carpet pre-show host Ariana DeBose and actor Lin-Manuel Miranda presented trailers for the upcoming films Summer of Soul (...Or, When the Revolution Could Not Be Televised), West Side Story, and In the Heights, respectively during the ceremony.[40][41] Architect David Rockwell served as production designer for the show.[42] In an press conference between the production team and reporters, Rockwell stated that the main lobby inside Union Station would be repurposed as the main setting for the awards presentation while adjacent outdoor areas would serve as patios for attendees to congregate before and after the ceremony.[43] He also cited the Millennium Biltmore Hotel and Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel, which was the venue of the inaugural Oscars ceremony, as inspirations for the design and staging of the festivities.[44] Actors Colman Domingo and Andrew Rannells hosted Oscars: After Dark, a program airing immediately after the ceremony interviewing winners and nominees.[45]
Eligibility and other rule changes
[edit]In lieu of the ceremony date change, the Academy changed the eligibility deadline for feature films from December 31, 2020, to February 28, 2021. AMPAS president Rubin and CEO Hudson explained the decision to extended the eligibility period saying, "For over a century, movies have played an important role in comforting, inspiring, and entertaining us during the darkest of times. They certainly have this year. Our hope, in extending the eligibility period and our Awards date, is to provide the flexibility filmmakers need to finish and release their films without being penalized for something beyond anyone's control."[46]
The Academy also revised its release and distribution requirements by allowing for films that were released via video on demand or streaming to be eligible for the awards on the condition that said films were originally scheduled to have a theatrical release and are subsequently uploaded to AMPAS's online screening service within 60 days of their public release. AMPAS also amended its theatrical exhibition qualifying rules to allow films debuting in Atlanta, Chicago, Houston, Miami, New York, and the San Francisco Bay Area theaters to qualify for the awards in addition to venues in Los Angeles.[47] Moreover, a week of nightly screenings at a drive-in theater within the aforementioned cities also rendered films eligible for consideration.[48]
Furthermore, the Academy made changes to specific award categories. The Best Sound Mixing and Best Sound Editing categories were combined into a single Best Sound category due to concerns from the Sound branch that the two categories had too much overlap in scope.[49] The rules for Best Original Score were changed to require that a film's score include a minimum of 60% original music, with franchise films and sequels being required to have a minimum of 80% new music.[50] Finally, preliminary voting for Best International Feature Film was also opened to all voting members of the Academy for the first time.[51]
Best Actor announcement ending
[edit]In a break with tradition, the lead acting categories were presented last after the awarding of Best Picture.[52] This led many viewers to believe that the ceremony's producers were anticipating Chadwick Boseman to posthumously win Best Actor, which could have been accompanied by a tribute to the actor. Anthony Hopkins, who was not in attendance, was instead announced as the winner. Joaquin Phoenix, who presented the category, simply stated that the Academy accepts the award on Hopkins' behalf in his absence, and the show ended abruptly.[53] Allegedly, Hopkins had offered to appear via Zoom, as he did not want to travel to the designated location, but was denied by producers.[54] He released a video the following day accepting the award, as well as paying tribute to Boseman.[55] He stated, among other things, that he was "very privileged and honored", while also acknowledging "I really did not expect this".[55]
In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, Soderbergh revealed that switching the traditional order of awards was planned before the nominations were announced, claiming "actors' speeches tend to be more dramatic than producers' speeches". After the ceremony, Soderbergh defended the decision, believing that the possibility of Boseman's widow accepting the award "would have been such a shattering moment" and "there would be nowhere to go after that". Soderbergh also defended the decision to not allow acceptance speeches via Zoom.[56]
Critical reviews and viewership
[edit]Some media outlets received the broadcast positively. Time columnist Judy Berman wrote that the ceremony "was entertaining than the average pre-COVID Oscars. It started out especially strong." She also added, "Every part of this year’s ceremony felt more intimate and less stuffy than just about any awards show I can remember. For once, the art and community of film seemed to take precedence over the business of film."[57] Associated Press reporter Lindsey Bahr commented, "The 93rd Academy Awards wasn’t exactly a movie, but it was a show made for people who love learning about movies. And it stubbornly, defiantly wasn’t trying to be anything else."[58] Darren Franlch of Entertainment Weekly gave an average review of the telecast, but singled out the winners and presenters for providing memorable moments throughout the show.[59]
Others were more critical of the show. Television critic Mike Hale of The New York Times wrote, Sunday’s broadcast on ABC was more like a cross between the Golden Globes and the closing-night banquet of a long, exhausting convention." He also commented, "The trade-off — whether because of the smaller crowd, the social distancing, or the sound quality in the cavernous space — was what felt like a dead room, both acoustically and emotionally. There were powerful and moving speeches, but they didn’t seem to be generating much excitement, and when the people in the room aren’t excited, it’s hard to get excited at home."[60] Rolling Stone columnist Rob Sheffield noted, "The most flamboyantly unplanned and half-assed Oscar Night in recent history was a grind from beginning to end." He also criticized the production of the In Memoriam segment saying that montage was edited at an inappropriately fast pace.[61]
The American telecast on ABC drew in an average of 10.4 million people over its length, which was a 56% decrease from the previous year's ceremony.[62] The show also earned lower Nielsen ratings compared to the previous ceremony with 5.9% of households watching the ceremony.[6] In addition, it garnered a lower rating among viewers between ages 18-49 with a 2.1 rating among viewers in that demographic.[63] It earned the lowest viewership for an Academy Award telecast since figures were compiled beginning with the 46th ceremony in 1974.[64]
