We are delighted that so many productions that paid into our Skills Funds – supporting training for the industry – are in the running for awards at the 2021 BAFTA Television and Television Craft Awards.
The annual ceremonies will take place on Monday 24 May for television craft and Sunday 6 June for television.
The ScreenSkills High-end TV Skills Fund is again supporting the vital work of crew in production by sponsoring the photography and lighting: fiction craft award. Skills Fund contributors Small Axe, Devs and Little Birds will go head-to-head in the category.
With 15 nominations, Small Axe is a top contender for honours. It will compete against I May Destroy You and Adult Material for the best mini-series award and has also received nominations in several craft categories including hair and make-up, production design and costume design.
The Crown is in the running for 10 awards, I May Destroy You for eight, closely followed by Sex Education which has been nominated six times.
Television Skills Fund-contributors BBC, Channel 4 and ITV will also be well-represented at both ceremonies with nominations for productions including The Ranganation, Strictly Come Dancing and Gogglebox.
