Aurora's 'The Academy' picks up silver at 43rd Telly Awards

Aurora Media’s ‘The Academy’ which was made for The Olympic Channel, won silver at the 43rd annual Telly Awards.

Made during the peak of lockdown, the 6-part series was a made with colossal contributions and co-operation across Europe and Asia. I took on a series producer / director roll for this and despite all the logistical and covid challenges, we delivered a really enjoyable, highly visual and eye opening series.

The silver award here follows on from the nomination at the Realscreen Awards a few months ago… so glad the project is picking up its due credit.

Thanks to the Aurora team and also Simon Cross who edited the series (often deep into the night).
