Rule Ten
Special Rules for The Costume Design Award

1. A reminder list of all eligible pictures shall be sent with a nominations ballot to all costume designer members of the Academy Art Directors Branch who shall vote in the order of their preference for not more than five productions.

2. To be eligible for the Costume Design Award, the costumes for the picture must have been conceived by a costume designer.

Eligibility shall be determined by the costume designer members of the Art Directors Branch present at a meeting called specifically for that purpose prior to the mailing of nominations ballots.

3. The five productions receiving the highest number of votes shall become the nominations for final voting for the Costume Design Award.

4. Final voting for the Costume Design Award shall be restricted to active and life Academy members.
