The 93rd Oscars went down on Sunday, April 25, almost two months later than the usual date the ceremony is held every year, in what was an unusual time.

The event was split between Dolby Theater in Hollywood and Union Station in downtown Los Angeles to help deal with the COVID-19 pandemic, according to New York Times.

It definitely felt different considering the pandemic, which led to many production houses shutting down unable to work.
