Congratulations to HND Film & Television student Sarah Stables who picked up the Craft skills for Writing prize at the Royal Television Society Scotland’s Student Awards at St Lukes in Glasgow last night.
Sarah’s short feature; “Falsehood” was nominated in the Drama category at the awards. She scripted, directed and produced the film during her HNC Film & Television Next Gen course at New College Lanarkshire’s Cumbernauld campus where she is currently working towards completing her HND Next Gen qualification.
Last year two former alumni of NCL’s Film & Television department; James Reid and Colleen Bell were both shortlisted in different categories with Colleen going on to pickup two awards, for her factual feature “The Space I Occupy”, which she produced during her studies at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland.
Sarah’s short feature “Falsehood” was one of the stand out films from last year’s NCL Film Festival and its great to see it pick up another award from The Royal Television Society this year. Its a well deserved accolade for the skill she demonstrated in that feature.
