‘The Simpsons’ Scores 37th Primetime Emmy Win With “Treehouse Of Horror XXXIII”
Winners of the 75th Creative Arts Emmys were unveiled over the weekend, where the major animation and vfx categories were distributed across the two-night event.
The 2023 Emmys were originally scheduled to take place last September, but the dual writers’ and actors’ strikes forced the awards to be delayed until this month.
Perennial contender The Simpsons won the award for outstanding animated program for its Halloween episode, “Treehouse of Horror XXXIII,” and character layout artist Nik Ranieri won an individual achievement in animation award for his work on the show. The Simpsons has now won 37 Primetime Emmy Awards from 100 nominations.
Maya Rudolph won her third outstanding character voice-over performance Emmy for playing Connie the Hormone Monsteress on Netflix’s Big Mouth, which will end its eight-season run later this year.
Max’s The Last of Us won the Emmy for outstanding special visual effects in a season or movie. The show features more than 3,000 vfx shots created by a roster of studios including DNEG, Wētā FX, Distillery VFX, Zero VFX, Important Looking Pirates, beloFX, Storm Studios, Wylie Co., RVX, Assembly, Crafty Apes, UPP, RISE, Framestore, Digital Domain and MAS.
Apple TV+’s Five Days at Memorial episode “Day Two” was honored as having the best visual effects in a single episode. The show is produced by ABC Signature in association with Apple; its principal vfx vendors are Stormborn, El Ranchito, and UPP.
Winners of this year’s juried individual achievement in animation awards were first announced back in June.
