Deadline revealed that there will be four Oscars that will be handed out during commercials, taped and aired later on. They are Best Cinematography, Live Action Short, Film Editing and Make-up and Hairstyling.

Each category's nominees and the winner's speech will still be aired. They will also be live streamed online.

Academy president John Bailey sent out a letter which explained: "While still honoring the achievements of all 24 awards on the Oscars, four categories-Cinematography, Film Editing, Live Action Short, and Makeup and Hairstyling - will be presented during commercial breaks, with their winning speeches aired later in the broadcast.

"And, with the help of our partners at ABC, we also will stream these four award presentations online for our global fans to enjoy, live, along with our audience. Fans will be able to watch on Oscar.com and on the Academy's social channels."

According to Bailey, in future years four to six different categories may be selected for 'rotation, in collaboration with the show producers'.
