Emmy® Awards ONLINE JUDGING


Thank you for your interest in judging Emmy entries from the Seattle/Northwest Chapter of NATAS. If you have been asked to complete a category click here for judging access.

The judging is divided into two methods. Seated Panels viewing DVD’s marking paper ballots, as we have done in previous years. New this year is on-line judging with on-line ballots, where you view on your own from a computer connected to the internet.

On-Line Judging begins here: http://www.emmyexpress.com/video/

You can select a panel from the list below that you are eligible to judge. You will be asked to fill out a judges registration before being allowed to view the material.

5 Easy Steps to get started:

  1. Decide which panel(s) you want to judge. Write down the “code” as you will need that to log in to the panel.

  2. Click the link above and enter the code NW_LGL_XX (where xx represents the number) in all three boxes if this is your first time: Panel Name, Username, and Password.

  3. Complete all the fields of the judges registration. In National Productions, if none, put “none”. Write down your login and password as you will use that information in place of the “code” for returning log ins.

  4. Select an entry to begin judging. When you have reached the required viewing limit the ballot will automatically appear. You may fill in the ballot at that point or continue watching. You are allowed to skip forward, pause and jump back.

  5. When you have completed viewing and judging all the entries in the category you have the opportunity to review your scores and make changes before submitting your ballot and affidavit of judging.
