RTS Wales Awards
One of the most exciting aspects of television is the way in which young people are always shaking things up with new ideas, scripts and fresh formats. The Royal Television Society recognises this youthful enthusiasm in the annual Student Television Awards.
The deadline for returning an entry form for a 2011 Award was in August. "The Awards are for student television work that shows outstanding visual and aural creativity, a mastery of craft skills, innovation and initiative."

The Wales Centre Regional Awards ceremony is held in conjunction with the Ffresh Student Television Festival, and the winners are automatically nominated for a UK-wide RTS award.
In 2008, RTS Wales approached the Celtic Media Festival to extend the Society’s reach with students in the Celtic nations. A competition was established, which saw the winners of the RTS student awards in Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, the Republic, and Devon and Cornwall, compete for the RTS-CMF Student Awards. These awards are judged by a jury of film makers, and are awarded at the annual Celtic Media Festival.
UPDATE: We have now linked to those winning films which are available to view online.
