Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Title Design Annual film award
This is a list of the winning and nominated programs of the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Title Design presented for the best main title sequence in television programming . Prior to 1997, the award was presented for Outstanding Individual Achievement in Graphic Design and Title Sequences or Outstanding Graphic Design and Title Sequences . In the 1980s and early 1990s, the award was presented with the "possibility of one, more than one, or no award given," resulting in years where there were nominees without any winner or multiple winners.[ 1]
