For this year's Academy Awards, the producers of the show will introduce new ways to present the trophies to the winners, writes Julie Keller for E! Online. For high-profile categories, the nominees will appear on stage as their names are called. For the low-profile categories, the nominees will be seated together and the presenter will join them in the audience before announcing the winner. In another variation, the nominees for several categories will be gathered on stage and the trophies will be handed out to the winners. "The concept this year is to minimize the line between people on stage and in the audience," explains show producer Gil Cates. The award show will air on ABC Feb. 27th.
