Awards Season: Want to go to the Vanity Fair Oscars® Party? Now there’s an App for That!

Campaign Hollywood 2011 Vanity FairHollywood: Oscars® Edition iPhone & iPad app

Vanity Fair Hollywood: Oscars® Edition App

This year, Vanity Fair has a week long “Campaign Hollywood” (which we will tell you more about as it happens next week) and will be accompanied by the new Vanity Fair Hollywood: Oscars® Edition app for the iPhone and iPad. This tool will give updates of the nominees, parties and other tidbits between now and the Academy Awards next Sunday February 27th, 2011. The app gives analysis of each nominee, links to trailers of nominated films, Voting pools on Oscar night, links to iMDB of actors and films and live coverage of the Vanity Fair parties with videos and images.

Voting:
Voting pools are always a highlight of Oscar night. The new Vanity Fair app makes choosing winners across all categories more fun than ever, as it allows you to make picks and get real-time results in the palm of your hands. Improved social-media features allow users to share their votes through Twitter, Facebook, and e-mail. The Vanity Fair Hollywood: Oscars® Edition app is a remote control to your friends on Oscar night.

Vanity Fair 2011 Oscar Party:
Of course, the Vanity Fair Oscar app wouldn’t be complete without exclusive coverage of the Vanity Fair party. Exclusive videos and images from Hollywood’s biggest bash will be updated throughout the night in the app’s Features section. Users can also follow V.F.’s Twitter feed from inside the party and get all the dish on who’s hanging with whom.

Nominees:
The Vanity Fair Hollywood: Oscars® Edition app also offers exclusive analysis of each nominee, and links to H.D. trailers of nominated films.

Contest:
Finally, users of the Vanity Fair Hollywood: Oscars® Edition app will have the opportunity to enter the Vanity Fair Hollywood Weekend Sweepstakes, featuring a trip for two to Los Angeles. One lucky winner and a guest will experience all that Hollywood has to offer with a weekend’s worth of Vanity Fair–curated events and happenings, including a three-night stay at an exclusive Tablet® Hotel property in the Los Angeles area; dinners for two at hip L.A. hot spots; and passes to a cultural venue, such as the cutting-edge Hammer Museum

Download:
The Vanity Fair Hollywood: Oscars® Edition app is optimized for all Apple platforms and is available now for free at the App Store via VF.com/oscarapp
