The American Society of Cinematographers has announced its Outstanding Achievement Awards in three categories honoring work for commercial and premium television.
As is its wont, Game of Thrones took a leading position, earning nominations for two different episodes from its recently completed season, "Book of the Stranger" and the exceptionally award-friendly "Battle of the Bastards." And HBO dominated overall, with its programs earning three more nominations —the pilots for Westworld, All the Way, and The Night Of are all up for awards.
The ASC's 31st annual Outstanding Achievement Awards will be given out at a ceremony at the Hollywood & Highland Ray Dolby Ballroom on February 4. The full list of nominees, selected by active ASC members who voted on submitted programs, follows.
