Well done to Kate Davis, our wonderful Head of Sound, who has just received a BAFTA award nomination in the Sound: Factual category.

Her nomination comes as a result of her brilliant work on the Eagle Rock Entertainment / BBC Music production ‘Amy Winehouse: Back to Black’, part of the Classic Albums series which airs on BBC 4. The BAFTA Craft awards take place on Sunday 28 April. Good luck Kate!

Directors Cut would like to congratulate Spun Gold TV on winning the Formatted Popular Factual category at the Royal Television Society Awards last night, Tuesday 19th March, for The Real Full Monty: Ladies Night, which was fully post-produced at Directors Cut.

Our amazing team have been incredibly lucky to work on several documentaries on the pre-judging shortlist for this year’s Grierson Awards. We have our fingers crossed for everyone who’s worked so hard on these amazing films. To see all the shortlist click here.
