Ceremony information On October 17, 2023, Hamish Hamilton was announced as director. On November 15, Jimmy Kimmel was announced as host, returning for the second consecutive year and fourth Academy Awards overall. On November 30, 2023, ABC and the Academy announced that the start time of the ceremony would be moved up by an hour to 4:00 p.m. PT (7:00 p.m. ET). This change enabled ABC to air a half-hour of primetime programming as a lead-out, featuring a new episode of its sitcom Abbott Elementary. An American Sign Language livestream was broadcast on the Academy's YouTube page featuring video of interpreters. The pre-show was hosted for the third consecutive year by Vanessa Hudgens, joined by new co-host Julianne Hough. Due to the scheduling change, the pre-show was shortened to 30 minutes. The beginning of the ceremony was delayed by six minutes, due to arrivals being slowed by Israel–Hamas war protests outside of the theatre. On January 29, 2024, comedian and broadcaster Amelia Dimoldenberg, host of the YouTube interview series Chicken Shop Date, was announced as the social media ambassador and red carpet correspondent. Dimoldenberg was involved in multiple Oscar season events, including the Oscars Nominees luncheon, where she participated in an Academy video production with nominees. She was also involved interviewing people at the Oscars red carpet and the "Oscars 96 Behind the Scenes Tour". Presenters were announced in a series of groups beginning on February 26, 2024. Performers were announced on February 28, 2024. After the first batch of presenters was announced, The Hollywood Reporter learned that the Academy would revive a popular presenting format previously used in 2009, where five Oscar-winning actors for leading and supporting performances took the stage together to introduce the current nominees in their respective categories. David Alan Grier was selected as the event's announcer. Production designers Alana Billingsley and Misty Buckley designed the stage over the course of nine months. According to Billingsley and Buckley, they were inspired by contemporary spaces where people can "meet, exchange, create [like] a modern-day plaza". Throughout the ceremony, the stage subtly changed its design to honor the nominees; the screenplay categories included images of real typewriters, while the Best Costume Design category showcased images of several of the nominated costumes.
