How to Vote

Please be prepared to vote - Review the Additional Voting Information by clicking the link located at the top of the page, as you may need to refer to it to complete your online ballot.

To begin voting press the "Begin Voting" button. You will then be stepped through all of the categories. To select your choice(s) click on the box to the left of the nominee's name or film. If you wish to change your mind, click again to de-select the same box. You may vote for only one nominee in each category.

Please only vote in categories for which you have seen all of the nominees. You are required to vote in the minimum of one category to complete this ballot. If you do not feel comfortable voting in a category because you have not seen all of the nominees, please skip that category.

When you are finished voting you will be shown a summary of how you voted in each category. If you wish to make a change, click on Edit for the appropriate category. You will be returned to that category and allowed to re-select your choice.

You must vote in at least one category to submit the ballot.

Once the ballot is submitted, you will not be able to log back into the site.
