AFIN recognition

From the Judges, on The Immortal Divide (2026)

From the Judges, on The Immortal Divide

Production design and visual effects carry a futuristic world that sits convincingly against ancient architecture, and the opening exteriors set that juxtaposition out with real confidence. Cinematography plays its part too, framing the material with an artistic shift between black and white and colour widescreen that the editing carries into something genuinely moving. A thought-provoking concept, handled with craft.

From the Judges, on Bad Social (2026)

From the Judges, on Bad Social

A survival-game thriller with a hook that lands fast and a human stake at its centre, this one sustains real momentum across its runtime. The effects work drew admiration for its ambition and scale, matched by sound design whose isolated detail lands cue for cue alongside the imagery, and by a score the panel enjoyed. They came away with the concept high in their minds, along with editing that keeps a long film moving.

From the Judges, on LOOK FOR ME AT DUSK (2023)

From the Judges, on LOOK FOR ME AT DUSK

A disaster story about a family seeking refuge in the fallout, this short builds a world of genuine epic scale, and the panel found the craft behind it thoroughly cinematic. The pacing sits comfortably with the length and structure of the story, and the design work sells the scope of what is unfolding on screen. It struck them as engaging the whole way through, with the bond at the film's centre landing with real emotion.

From the Judges, on Gold From the Sky (2019)

From the Judges, on Gold From the Sky

A dystopian science-fiction premise unfolds across this series with an ambition the panel responded to warmly, and the visual world-building drew genuine admiration for its use of VFX to realise a futuristic setting. They found the aesthetic well realised and the craft assured, with a tight screenplay and solid work from the cast holding it together. It left them wanting the next episode.
