Netflix Shows and Films Dominate Location Managers Guild International Awards Nominations

The Location Managers Guild International Awards released their list of nominees on Friday, with Netflix dominating nearly every category.

The awards honor the outstanding and creative visual contributions by location professionals in film, television and commercials from around the globe. The LMGI Awards also recognize outstanding service by film commissions for their support “above and beyond” during the production process.

Netflix had at least one nomination in every TV and film category (minus commercial). In the Outstanding Locations in a Period Film and Television Series categories, Netflix had three out of five nominations, as well as in the Outstanding TV Serial Program, Anthology or Limited Series.

Oscar darling “Nomadland” received a nod for Outstanding Locations in a Contemporary Film.
