    Obviously this is insulting to everyone nominated in all the categories (cinematography, editing, live-action short, and makeup & hairstyling) but I keep coming back to live-action short.

      Live-action short is often a category that introduces talented new filmmakers. Excluding the award of Best Live Action Short Film from the broadcast is a gatekeeping exercise from an already-heavily-exclusive industry.
