The prizes at the RTS East Student Awards were shared around the region’s colleges and universities.
At the March awards ceremony, held at the Old Divinity School, St John’s College, Cambridge, the main Drama, Animation and Factual prizes were awarded to students from Anglia Ruskin University, Norwich University of the Arts and the University of Hertfordshire, respectively.
Two films picked up two awards each: Eternity’s Grace (Drama and Camerawork), which was praised by the judges as a “brilliantly executed and skilfully acted piece” and The Curse of Dracular (Animation and Production Design), “heart-warming and effective; the animation was full of character and most skilful – a lovely idea”.
