NICOLE VOLAVKA'S COMMERCIAL FOR BARNARDO'S HAS WON THE PORSCHE AWARD
Nicole Volavka C. 159 won the special prize at the Porsche International Student Film Awards 2009 for her commercial for Barnardo's called "RUBBISH". The ceremony is held annually at the Baden-Wurttemberg Film Academy. The DOP was LFS graduate Aaron Reid.
Here's the write up: Special Prize"Rubbish", Nicole Volavka (The London Film School/England).
The clear message - children feel they are treated as rubbish - is conveyed in a straight line, thus achieving a high credibility and a direct emotional appeal without a false sense of pathos. Pictures with enormous symbolic strength elevate this spot to a form of art, not in spite of but because of their artificiality and their lack of naturalism.
Nicole is now represented in the Czech Republic and Germany by Saward Graf Kurle Management.

Avantika Hari (C. 155) first feature, having had its European premiere in Birmingham earlier this year year, which is where it was shot, has finally been premiered in India.

"I've got some really good news regarding the film. Land Gold Women premiered in India at the Mumbai Film Festival under the New Faces section last month. We are in the prestigious Indian Panorama section of the International Film Festival of India in Goa this November and we've just got official word that the film has been nominated in the categories of "Best Film" and "Best Producer" at the Asian Festival of First Film in Singapore!
So now hopefully, the festival ball will start rolling and we can get a distributor."
