The 81st Academy Awards (2008): Awards Calendar
Welcome to my official Precursor Calendar for the 2008 awards season. Below, you will find all of the dates of the various precursors leading up to and including the Academy Awards. This calendar should help you plan your Oscar season months better to get the best exposure.
Not all organizations have officially announced dates for their awards. There is a Legend above the calendar that should help you understand the colors and notations. Dates that are not official are my best guesses as to when the award will be announced based on data from 2007/08 and shifting the dates to coincide with the 2008/09 calendar. As I found out official dates, I will update this calendar.
Below the calendar is a list of abbreviations used below in order to save space.
