This past weekend, the Creative Arts Primetime Emmy Awards were handed out in Los Angeles at a rather quaint ceremony, unlike the overblown show which will be held Sunday on NBC.

Speaking of NBC, the sports division won two Creative Arts Emmys for the production of the Vancouver Winter Olympics earlier this year.

Opening Ceremony Wins for Lighting & Music Direction
NEW YORK – August 23, 2010 – NBC Sports won two Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards for its coverage of the Opening Ceremony of the Vancouver Winter Olympic Games on Saturday in Los Angeles. The Emmys are awarded by the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences.
The two awards are:
  • Outstanding Lighting Direction (Electronic, Multi-Camera) For Variety, Music Or Comedy Programming
  • Outstanding Music Direction
NBC Sports’ coverage of the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympic Games was watched by 190 million Americans on the networks of NBC Universal, making it the second-most watched Winter Olympics ever, surpassing Salt Lake City (187 million) and ranking behind only the Lillehammer Games.

I’ll be back later.
