One of the principal functions of the British Academy of Film & Television Arts is to identify and reward excellence in the artforms of the moving image. It achieves this objective by bestowing awards on those practitioners who have excelled in their chosen field of expertise.
In 1947, the Academy granted three awards. Today, more than one hundred awards are bestowed annually in the fields of film, television and video games. Our five annual awards ceremonies in London are as follows:
The Orange British Academy Film Awards
The British Academy Video Games Awards
The British Academy Television Awards sponsored by Pioneer
The British Academy Television Craft Awards
The 10th British Academy Children’s Film & Television Awards in association with Time Warner
The Academy has earned its position as keeper of the gold standard because its engaged voting body is a diverse, expert membership of industry peers. Each Awards process varies, but the coveted BAFTA mask is awarded to individuals via combinations of membership votes, qualified industry chapters and specially selected juries comprising industry practitioners who have reached the pinnacle of their profession in a variety of disciplines.
The BAFTA mask is regarded as the most coveted award among industry practitioners working in all artforms of the moving image.
