I want to make a discussion about dreaming to get an Academy award. But since I am a Japanese, I don't know which sounds better. So help me!

Academy sounds more "industry" to me, but maybe not to outsiders. "Oscars" are highly protected, however, so beware there may be implications depending on how it's used.

Personally, if this is your fore most question then you're going to fail. Badly.

Awards are awarded on the significant merit of outstanding achievement in your respective field of endeavour. Make an amazing film first, then another etc and then once you've mastered your field, the accolades will come.

Focus, first and foremost, on the film. There's no set of conditions you need to tick off that will get you an award. So focus on being the best director, producer or whatever you can.
