This years ATVAs (otherwise known as Oscars back in those days) took place on the 10th May at the MacRoberts Art Centre! Although many of these films have been sadly lost to time we've done our best to find them, check out the trailer and some of the films below!
The 2010 ATVAs
The Ark

You've heard of hungry Caterpillars and tigers now get ready to meet this creature from hell that will eat anything. Calder's film is a stop motion delight and a must watch for horror fans!
Riverside Drive

Told entirely through still photos, 'Riverside Drive' tells the stories and tragedies of Riverside Drive and the people that lived there.
Run
Dir. Iain Campbell
Featuring some creative cinematography and engaging performances, Campbell's film is a short that students all over can relate to. Although be warned, the running is metaphorical.
Freshers Week

Freshers week is the greatest week of the year, and if you can't wait until next year why not watch the dramatized one from 2011? Rumbles makes Freshers week dramatic and relatable. Enjoy.
