The Location Managers Guild International’s 13th annual ceremony recognized location professionals tied to major film and television projects, awarding prizes to teams behind Best Picture Oscar winner One Battle After Another and to teams working on Marty Supreme, as well as TV honorees including Pluribus, Fallout and Black Rabbit.
The Location Managers Guild International (LMGI) handed out film and television awards Saturday night at its 13th annual LMGI Awards ceremony, honoring the location teams behind several major screen productions, Deadline reported. The film prizes included recognition for the team behind One Battle After Another, which was described as a Best Picture Oscar winner, along with an additional film honor for Marty Supreme, which was characterized as a nominee.
Deadline’s report said the awards spotlighted location pros whose work supports large-scale productions that rely on finding appropriate sites, managing logistics, and coordinating on-set access. Among the film winners, One Battle After Another’s location team received the top film honor highlighted in Deadline’s recap, while Marty Supreme also took a film prize at the ceremony.
On the television side, Deadline reported that location teams associated with Pluribus, Fallout and Black Rabbit were recognized with TV honors at the event. The awards, as presented in the report, covered multiple projects across the medium, underscoring the guild’s focus on the practical craft and professional coordination involved in production location work.
The ceremony was hosted by a comic and television personality, Deadline said, but the host’s name was not included in the text available for this roundup. LMGI’s awards are designed to recognize the work of location professionals, including the planning and field execution that allow productions to shoot on real-world sites while meeting the requirements of property owners, local authorities and production schedules.
Deadline’s recap framed the winning titles as part of a busy year of high-profile film and television output, where location management can be a decisive factor in both cost and schedule adherence. By singling out specific productions and their location teams, the awards also function as a professional benchmark for the guild’s membership, recognizing the behind-the-scenes work that helps productions move from preproduction into filming and postproduction.
The 13th annual LMGI Awards ceremony closed out with the guild’s film and TV winners being publicly recognized, according to Deadline. Further details about which individual team members received each specific honor and whether additional categories were awarded were not included in the portion of the report available here.
Why It Matters
- Awards for location professionals can affect industry visibility for the crews that handle site scouting, permits, and on-location logistics, which are often central to whether productions stay on schedule.
- Recognizing multiple major film and television projects highlights the guild’s role in setting professional standards across both mediums during a period of heavy production activity.
- Public acknowledgement by an industry guild can influence future hiring patterns and contracting decisions for location work, particularly on large productions.
- The timing of the ceremony, published as part of the awards coverage on August 22-23, provides a mid/late-season marker for industry attention ahead of later-year release cycles.
