The Judges said:
Teesside Caravans was glossy and inviting and the subject matter was evident from the outset.  The production had a high quality feel and was perceived to be an attractive proposition for people in the market for buying caravans.  The graphics for AirFair – Ways to Waste 3 Hours were fun and clean without being distracting from the point.  Music was well used and the production was memorable catchy and informative.

But they particularly liked South Shields Marine School — well shot with an excellent choice of music and a clear target audience.  Overall the production had a bold cinematic approach with a feeling of powerful drama, all achieved on a relatively tight budget.
