Beakus are going to help kick-start the careers of budding new animators with the launch of NewD 2015!

Short for ‘New Director’ NewD 2015 challenges animators to create a 10-second clip on the theme Being Bold. We’re looking for new animation graduates from UK courses to compete to win a paid internship at our thriving London studio, with the aspiration of becoming represented as a commercials director.

Alongside Beakus producers Steve Smith and Laura Thomas Beakus have an amazing jury of industry glitterati whose job it’ll be to handpick the best of the bunch…

Bruce McKelvie – (Head of Film, M&C Saatchi)
Jon Creamer – (Deputy Editor, Televisual)
Adrian Johnson – (Illustrator extraordinaire)
Morwenna Gordon – (Comedy Development Exec, Sky)

Entrants need to complete a form at www.beakus.com/newd before 1st June, and then send us their completed Being Bold animation by 24th June.

All details are at www.beakus.com/newd.
Please let everyone know about NewD 2015!

This is a wonderful opportunity for animation graduates to stand head-and-shoulders above their peers, and gain a foothold in our industry. Beakus has a history of developing new talent and are really excited to see what this year’s graduates can do!
