Art Directors Guild (ADG) Nominations: ‘Marty Supreme,’ ‘Murderbot,’ Lady Gaga’s “Abracadabra” and More
The 30th Art Directors Guild Awards, which celebrates excellence in production design across 13 categories spanning film, TV, commercials, music videos and shorts, have revealed their nominations where Marty Supreme, The Fantastic Four: First Steps, Wake Up Dead Man, Murderbot and Lady Gaga’s “Abracadabra” are among this year’s nominees.
The guild, which features over 3,000 members, divides its top film awards into Fantasy, Period and Contemporary categories. Since the Art Directors guild began 30 years ago, the winner of one of those has gone on to win the Art Direction/Production Design Oscar in 20 of the 29 years including last year, when Wicked production designer Nathan Crowley and set decorator Lee Sandales took home the Academy Award two weeks after their ADG win. For television, the guild breaks down categories by length (half hour, one hour) and genre type (variety, limited series/TV movie).
“As we commemorate the 30th anniversary of the Excellence in Production Design Awards, we celebrate not just the outstanding achievements of the past year, but also three decades of visionary artistry that have defined the visual storytelling of film and television,” said Dina Lipton, president of the Art Directors Guild, IATSE Local 800. “This milestone honors the art directors, illustrators, storyboard artists, set designers, scenic and graphic artists and all of the creative minds who work in the art department and continue to captivate and inspire audiences worldwide.”
Winners will be announced February 28 during the ADGs ceremony at Ovation Hollywood’s Ray Dolby Ballroom. The guild will present Lifetime Achievement Awards that to production designer and director Bo Welch; set designer and art director Jann Engel; illustrator, storyboard artist and production designer Tom Southwell; and scenic artist Stephen McNally.
