We get a lot of questions this time of year:
"Can I purchase a duplicate EMMY?"
"My name wasn't on the entry but I was a contributor to an
EMMY-awarded piece.
Can I buy a statue?"
"My station paid the entry fees. Who gets the award?"
We thought this would be a good opportunity to answer those questions and let you know your options.
A good starting place is the Award Ownership clause from the National Television Academy. This clause was included in the Rules section of our 2005 Call for Entries:
AWARD OWNERSHIP:
EMMY Awards are presented to individuals, not to their employers. Ownership of the EMMY statuette is retained by the individuals and The National Television Academy, even if an employer pays entry fees. Stations, studios and production companies may order a duplicate statuette for display at their place of business (one each; up to a maximum of three per winning program entry). Corporations, production companies, cable companies and other employers associated with winning craft entries may purchase plaques from the Academy that have a replica of the statuette and space to list the names and titles of their employees' award recipients for display at their offices.
