Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Production Design for a Narrative Program (Half-Hour or Less)
The Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Production Design for a Narrative Program is an award handed out annually at the Creative Arts Emmy Awards. In 2014, the category was created alongside Outstanding Production Design for a Narrative Period Program and the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Production Design for a Narrative Contemporary or Fantasy Program.
Rules require that nominations are distributed proportionally among multi-camera and single-camera series, based on the number of submissions of each. For instance, if two-fifths of submissions are multi-camera then two of the five nominees will be multi-camera.
