We won the RTS East Awards!

Great news - we've come home successful from the Royal Television Society East awards as winners in the 'short form digital' catergory!

We're over the moon with this achievement, and thanks to the team of jurors who chose us. We presented a trio of films for their consideration with our client Beach Hut Six - Inked Dreams, Christmas and Autumn films. After being nominated last year we've sealed the deal, beating out two other great films and all other submitted films.

The jurors said of our film:

The winner was a really innovative and artful approach to advertising, made with strong technical craft. The jurors would also like to give a special shoutout to the sound design, which they were impressed by.

Thanks to everyone who supported us, and our client Barbara who started this whole process. An RTS is a huge achievement that's already opened new doors for us!

The event itself was lovely - at Cambridge Uni's trinity college, it was certainly the fanciest event we've ever attended, with a three-course meal served in one of the dining halls. It was great to meet new faces at the event, with Mustard sitting shoulder-to-shoulder with much bigger teams from BBC and Channel 4, respectively. Alongside the new faces it was great to see our friends in the industry, from Norfolk Screen to SubMotion to Trett Films, who also took home a trophy (a second win for local Norwich businesses).

As we don't make loads of original content, it's not often we're able to put films into competitions like this - things like the RTS awards celebrate corperate work, seeing the talent in advertising and what we put into our BH6 films.

Who knows where things will go from here - hopefully we'll have a project to apply with next next year to keep the train running! While just one of us attended this time, it would be great to one day attend with the whole CTM team.
