If you wanted a signal that Hugo could be popular enough to take this category at the Oscars, look no further. While they missed last year, the CAS has done fairly well naming all four of the prior contests, so it’s a fairly good bet that this one should duplicate.

In addition to the nominees and/or winners listed below, this year, we’re giving you a quick background on each individual precursor including founding year, first awards year and a glimpse at how many predictions the group has gotten right in the last five years. This data can be found below.

As promised, I have posted the history of this particular guild on my website. You can find it by following this link: Cinema Audio Society.
