Campaigning Guidelines:

This year we are once again delighted to offer all entrants the opportunity to make their programmes available for BAFTA Members to view online

This service is open to all entrants and allows BAFTA members to re-watch the programmes ahead of the online voting in March.

You will be able to upload your programmes from Thursday 4 October 2012 through to Friday 14 December 2012, via the dedicated Entry Portal .

If you have any questions please contact Kelly Smith on kellys@bafta.org or 020 7292 5821.

BAFTA LOGOS: You may only use the BAFTA logo in print and broadcast once you have received a nomination. Logos and permission agreements will be provided by the Academy before the nominations are announced, for advance artwork preparation, but may only be used if the programme receives a nomination.

The Academy kindly invites broadcasters and producers to respect these rules and regulations. Any broadcasters or production companies abusing this facility will forfeit their right to access the Membership.

Voting Procedure:

The TV-voting constituency of the Academy casts its votes online, for all those programmes entered according to the aforementioned criteria.

Those programmes which have attracted the most votes from the Academy membership are then put up for further scrutiny by category juries specially selected by the Academy Television Committee.

Each jury, which consists of nine individuals (with a quorum of seven) aims to be balanced in age, sex, experience, ethnicity and in broadcasting allegiances, with a track record of achievement in the genre and with no direct association with a short-listed programme. It must also comprise a real level of expertise within the category. These juries decide upon the four nominations and the winner of the Awards.
