The awards were hosted by Cool FM presenter Pete Snodden and the judges were Tim Bryans, ALT Animation, Joanne Hall, Director and Liz Barron, NI Screen.
Afterwards, Liz Barron said “We were delighted with the high standard of the work that we saw. The future of the media industry in Northern Ireland is in good hands with these young people.
