Time to give props. The Property Masters Guild has revealed the nominees for its second annual MacGuffin Awards. Have a look at the list below.
The awards, which will be presented September 13 at the Paramount Theater in Hollywood, celebrate the creative excellence and impact of property masters across film, TV, commercials and more.
The group’s film and TV categories span contemporary, period and fantasy/sci fi, and its snall-screen also are split among half-hour and hourlong shows and multicam/single cam. The guild’s shortform race comprises commercials, music videos, short films and web series.
“The depth of creativity and craftsmanship in this year’s submissions is a powerful reminder of what property masters bring to storytelling,” awards committee chair Theresa Corvino said. “From the smallest detail to the most iconic props, their work shapes the emotional language of a scene. As the Guild continues to champion the visibility and legacy of our craft, we’re honored to celebrate these artists and the vital role they play across film, television and beyond.”
Winners at last year’s inaugural MacGuffin Awards included The Bear, Oppenheimer, The Last Of Us, Poor Things and others.
