"Winning the AOP student award category helped my confidence massively. It made me realise that the hard work I put into the images I was producing at the time had paid off. It bought me a lot of social media attention and really helped to get my work out to the public."
-Sian Oliver

Don't Forget! Lecturer and Course of the Year Awards
If you are a student of one of our AOP affiliated courses, you can make nominations for lecturer and course of the year. This is a great chance to highlight a particular staff member who has gone above and beyond in the department, and to get your course the recognition it deserves!
Full criteria and how to nominate can be found here under the 'Categories' heading.

In the coming weeks I will be bringing news on the prizes for the awards, as well as announcing exclusive competitions to run alongside the awards; so keep your eyes peeled.
We can't wait to see what you've been working on, good luck everyone!
Best,
