Our talented graduates are up for awards across the categories, from Drama Series, Director: Fiction, Production Design, Emerging Talent: Fiction and more.

Baby Reindeer swept nominations this year, with directing graduate Weronika Tofilska up for Director: Fiction and Limited Drama alongside editing graduate Benjamin Gerstein nominated for Editing: Fiction, and sound designer Tom Jenkins, for their work on the ground-breaking show. The NFTS is also proud to see Prime Video Directors Workshop 2022 participant Mitch Kalisa nominated for Emerging Talent: Fiction.

A host of our fantastic sound graduates are named in the Sound: Fiction category, including supervising dialogue/ADR editor Adele Fletcher for House of the Dragon, dialogue editor Duncan Price, re-recording mixer Martin Jensen and sound designer Alex Ellerington for their work on Slow Horses, and Tom Jenkins, who picked up a second nomination for True Detective: Night Country. Continuing the audio streak, the NFTS also saw two talented composing graduates pick up nominations: Rivals composer Natalie Holt for Original Music: Fiction, and American Nightmare composer Jessica Jones for Original Music: Factual.

Other graduate nominations include Sherwood director Clio Bernard and Supacell series producer Joanna Crow for Drama Series, a Production Design nomination for Dominic Hyman for Rivals, and director and executive producer for Say Nothing, Michael Lennox for International.
