Students from Norwich University of the Arts won two of the four prizes on offer at the RTS East Student Awards in March at a ceremony hosted by BBC Look East reporter Mousumi Bakshi at Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge.
The Drama award was awarded to She Hears Crying and the Factual prize went to Under the Blanket, both made by teams of students from Norwich University of the Arts.
She Hears Crying was praised by the judges for a “strong central performance and engaging narrative”, while Under the Blanket was “very engaging, with huge twists and great use of flashbacks”.
