Emmy Magazine Celebrates Milestone 75th Emmy Awards, Taking Readers Behind The Scenes with Exclusive Photos from the Biggest Night In Television
In celebration of the 75th Emmy Awards, emmy magazine is showcasing over 250 dazzling photos, from the silver carpet arrivals to the official afterparty and revealing many unseen moments from the star-studded celebration. This special issue of the Academy's official award-winning publication is on sale February 16.
Hosted by Anthony Anderson at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles on January 15, the 75th Emmy Awards was packed with rare cast reunions, reproductions of classic TV sets, stunning musical performances, heartfelt speeches and fan-favorite cast celebrations. In this special awards issue, emmy takes its readers backstage for all the action, with a photo package that captures every moment of the FOX telecast and includes the exclusive, invite-only Governors Gala.
The issue shares a glimpse inside the emmy photo lounge, where television stars and creatives, along with their statuettes and glasses of Franciacorta sparkling wine, sat for portraits by acclaimed photographer Robert Ascroft. With support from his seven-person team, Ascroft kept a focused eye on backstage monitors to start planning the shot from the moment a subject won. "I liked the way the dress looked on [cover star] Quinta Brunson when she was standing, so I decided to shoot that right as she walked onto set," Ascroft says. "For Jeremy Allen White, I thought a cool seated shot that looked relatively calm was a great way to celebrate a well-deserved win." CLICK HERE for a selection of photos.
In addition to the Emmy-night portfolio, emmy shares the Top 75 Most Impactful Television Moments, as voted on by members of the Television Academy and a select group of academic professionals. The list includes moments from beloved sitcoms, historical newscasts and televised events that influenced society and shifted public opinion and social norms.
