The Academy Awards, commonly known as the Oscars®, are awards for artistic and technical merit in the film industry. They are presented annually by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) in the United States in recognition of excellence in cinematic achievements as assessed by the Academy's voting membership. The Oscars® are widely considered to be the most prestigious awards in the film industry.
The major award categories, known as the Academy Awards of Merit, are presented during a live-televised Hollywood ceremony in February or March. It is the oldest worldwide entertainment awards ceremony.
The first Academy Awards were held in 1929. The second ceremony in 1930 was the first one broadcast by radio. The 1953 ceremony was the first one televised.
The Academy Awards are the oldest of the four major annual American entertainment awards. The Oscar statuette depicts a knight, rendered in the Art Deco style.
