EXIT directors receive an unprecedented number of nominations for the 2018 ACCTA Awards
EXIT directors Garth Davis, Glendyn Ivin, Ben Lawrence and Billie Pleffer have each received nominations for their work across primetime television series, narrative and documentary feature, and online series categories–for the 2018 AACTA Awards, recognising Australia’s highest achievements in film and television.
Work by EXIT directors in 2018 has collected 16 nominations across as many AACTA categories, to be awarded on December 3rd, 2018.
Earlier this month director Selina Miles’ spot for Carefree via DDB Sydney, ‘Meet the Matriarchs’, was awarded the Glass Award for Change at Spikes Asia 2018, boldly positioning mature women as experts on periods.
EXIT director Danny Cohen has also reached an unprecedented third-year-running nomination for the ARIA Award for Best Music Video–this year for directing Courtney Barnett’s video ‘Need a Little Time’ which has banked more than 1m Youtube views.
Tom Campbell’s work with Behind The Wire on the mixed media exhibition THEY CANNOT TAKE THE SKY — featuring documentary portraits of Australian asylum seekers in their own words — was also awarded the Museums & Galleries National Award (MAGNA) for Temporary or Travelling Exhibition 2018, as well as the City of Melbourne Multicultural Award earlier this year.
