BAFTA – The British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) tonight (November 07) celebrated 2018’s BAFTA Breakthrough Brits, in partnership with Burberry – 19 of the UK’s most promising future stars of film, games and television – at a star-studded reception attended by leading figures in the creative industries.
Sara Putt, Chair of BAFTA’s Learning and New Talent Committee, welcomed guests before the honourees were introduced by actors George MacKay, Stacy Martin and Tom Hiddleston. Other guests at the event, which took place for the first time at 194 Piccadilly, an exciting new event space underneath the home of BAFTA, included actors Gemma Arterton and Susan Wokoma, documentary-maker Stacey Dooley, SB.TV founder Jamal Edwards MBE, and CEO of games industry trade body Ukie Dr Jo Twist OBE.
Breakthrough Brits is BAFTA’s flagship initiative that identifies and supports the UK’s next generation of creative talent. Selected by a jury of industry experts after a UK-wide open call for nominations and applications, the 2018 Breakthrough Brits will be supported by BAFTA over the next 12 months as they progress their careers.
