NAHEMI/Kodak Student Commercial Awards

The Kodak Student Commercial Awards have been running since the 1980s organised by NAHEMI in association with Kodak.  The NAHEMI/Kodak Commercial Awards is a competition for student filmmakers to make a 30 second commercial from one roll of 400ft negative film stock.

Each year, a selection of live briefs are provided by professional advertising agencies, and entries are judged by a jury that includes representatives of the agencies and commercials professionals.

The Competition is open to NAHEMI member institutions in the UK and Ireland, with prizes are awarded for craft categories as well as ‘Best in Brief’ and ‘Best Overall’. 
Click through for winners for 2025, 2024, 2023 and 2022.

The competition is launched in October, for submission in February, with an awards screening in May each year, at a cinema venue.
All entries are screened at the awards ceremony.
