The 2015 Leo Awards, B.C.’s film & TV awards, is back with another strong roster of local talent and films.
Nominees were announced earlier this week, with Eadweard and Motive leading the pack in the sheer number of nominations. Eadweard, a psychological drama fittingly centred around 19th century stop-motion pioneer Eadweard Muybridge, garnered 15 nominations in the motion picture categories. Motive, a Canadian police procedural TV series from CTV, took home an astounding 21 nods in dramatic series categories. You can view the entire nomination list online.

Today, tickets have officially have gone on sale for the award ceremonies, but this year’s event is a bit different from past Leos.
The Leos have been staged over three nights before, but this time the celebration will happen over two consecutive weekends, with festivities taking place at different venues. While the break-up of individual categories will matter to the nominees, June 14’s Red Carpet and Gala Night will have the biggest celebrity splash.
