The National Film School at IADT almost achieved a clean sweep of the principal prizes, with its students taking home the Animation, Drama and Factual awards.
It also won all four Craft Skills awards: Camera, Fiachra Gallagher Lawson for Bestial Ones; Editing, Meghan O’Shaughnessy for They Killed Us for Existing; and Sound, Rory Sweeney, and Writing, Conor Bradley, for Sons of Róisín.
The Technological University Dublin won the Entertainment and Comedy Drama category.
“Despite the difficulties of the past few years, and the restrictions of the Covid lockdown, once again the students have astonished us with the originality, resourcefulness, wit and verve of their work,” said RTS Republic of Ireland Chair Agnes Cogan.
