Every year Bafta celebrates and supports the best in upcoming British talent in TV, film and games and now it is on the lookout for the next set of talent.
Up to 20 on and off-screen creatives are picked by an industry jury to take part in a year-long mentoring and guidance which included access to Bafta events and screenings and the member’s space in Piccadily as well as a tailored programme of support, mentoring and career development with industry professionals.
Applications are now open for exceptional individuals over the age of 18 from all backgrounds. Go to bit.ly/Breakthrough-Brits.
Over the past three years, a handful of south London talents have benefitted from becoming Bafta Breakthrough Brits, with some going on to big things. Click through the pictures above to find out about our previous Breakthrough Brits.
