2016 – 45th Northern California Area Emmy® Award Nominations

1
45th Annual NORTHERN CALIFORNIA AREA EMMY® AWARD
NOMINATIONS ANNOUNCED
The 45th Annual Northern California Area EMMY® Award Nominations were announced
Wednesday, May 4th during a live webcast from the Coloma Community Center on Access
Sacramento. The EMMY® award is presented for outstanding achievement in television by The
National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS). San Francisco/ Northern California is
one of the nineteen chapters awarding regional Emmy® statuettes. Northern California is composed
of media companies and individuals from Visalia to the Oregon border and includes Hawaii and
Reno, Nevada. Entries aired during the 2015 calendar year.
This year a record number of 757 English and 179 Spanish entries were received in 67 categories. English
and Spanish language entries were judged and scored separately. A minimum of seven peer judges from
other NATAS chapters scored each entry on a scale from 1 to 10 on Content, Creativity and Execution.
(Craft categories were judged on Creativity and Execution only). The total score was divided by the
number of judges. The mean score was sorted from highest to lowest in each category. The Chapter
Awards Committee looked at blind scores (not knowing the category) and decided on the cut off number
for nominations and recipients. The results were tabulated by our accounting firm Spalding and
Company.
KNTV NBC Bay Area and KUVS Univision 19 each received 33 nominations. Individual honors went
to María Leticia Gómez of KDTV Univision 14 with 10 nominations followed by Vicky Nguyen,
KNTV NBC Bay Area with nine. Total enteries nominated: 197 English and 83 Spanish. 895
Nomination Certificates were given to 534 individuals.
The Emmy® Gala returns SFJAZZ Center in San Francisco on Saturday, June 4, 2016. The black
tie evening starts at 6:00 pm with hors d'oeuvres and complimentary wine. (No host bar available)
The program begins at 7:00 pm in the Robert N. Miner Auditorium with reserved seating. We will
conclude the night with dessert following the awards presentation. Recipients of the Emmy®
statuette will be escorted to the Joe Henderson Lab for red carpet photos and interviews. The
evening will be a dual webcast so family and friends can watch the stage presentation or the red
carpet interviews at www.emmysf.tv.
