Award Setting of Taiwan Film Golden Horse Awards

The film awards of the Golden Horse Awards Chinese Film Competition include the best feature film, the best animated feature film, the best documentary film and the best short film creation. Individual awards include best director, best actress, best supporting actor, best newcomer award, best original script, best adapted script, best photography, best visual effect, best art design, best styling design, best action design, best original movie music, best original movie song and best editing. In addition, there are special awards, such as Taiwan Province Excellent Film of the Year, Taiwan Province Excellent Filmmaker of the Year, and Best Film Award voted by the audience in informal competitions. 1962 In order to promote the development of film production in Taiwan Province Province, the Information Bureau of the Executive Yuan of Taiwan Province Province established the Golden Horse Award as a competition award for outstanding Taiwan Province films and outstanding filmmakers, and mainly promoted China film production to praise filmmakers who have made outstanding contributions to China culture.

Starting from 1980 (27th session), the Golden Horse Award was changed to be sponsored by the American Film Development Foundation, and the executive committee of Taipei Golden Horse Film Festival was established under it, and nine to fifteen film scholars and practitioners were urged to serve as executive committee members. There is a chairman, a secretary-general and a deputy secretary-general responsible for facilitating the meeting. There are three groups. The marketing and publicity group is responsible for the cooperation, publicity and peripheral activities of all manufacturers, media promotion and the production of publicity publications. The competition group is responsible for the China Film Competition, the Golden Horse Awards Ceremony and the International Digital Short Film Competition. The film festival team is responsible for film festival content planning, film and filmmaker invitation, subtitle translation and production, copy delivery and on-site implementation of the film festival.

For a long time, due to the different political positions between the two sides of the Taiwan Straits, the Golden Horse Awards focused more on encouraging Taiwan Province films and Hong Kong films before 2000. However, the weakening of the film industry in Taiwan Province Province and the massive loss of Hong Kong film staff have made this award gradually open to mainland Chinese films and participate in the competition.

At present, this award is still held by the Executive Committee of the Taipei Golden Horse Film Festival, which is affiliated to the Film Industry Development Foundation and subsidized by the Information Bureau of the Executive Yuan of the Taiwan Province Provincial Office. Its trend is divided into "International Movie Watching Project" and "China Film Competition Project". The source of funds for the "International Movie Watching Project" is the ticket income, plus the subsidy from the "Film Development Foundation". The "Chinese Film Competition Project" is the responsibility of the Executive Committee of the Golden Horse Award.

In the early days, the hosts of the Golden Horse Awards often had the tradition of "Hong Kong and Taiwan", but later all the hosts were from Taiwan Province Province.
