WELCOME TO THE BRITISH ACA DEMY CHILDRENÕS AWA RDS
A
very warm welcome to this year’s British Academy Children’s Awards, our annual celebration of excellence in children’s media. Congratulations to all those nominated this evening. Children’s media continues to be a hotbed of creativity and innovation, and we’re proud to shine a light on the extraordinary talent working in this field. Your vital work continues to make a huge difference to the lives of young people who enjoy your wonderful creations each and every day. Just as children’s media evolves, so too must BAFTA’s Awards. As such, we have added several new categories to the Children’s Awards this year, reflecting new developments in the industry and the breadth of excellent content now available to young audiences. This includes a Young Performer category for under-18s, giving us the opportunity to highlight the incredible contribution that young people themselves are making to children’s programming. The addition of a new Director category also provides greater visibility for the importance of this craft in children’s media. In addition to our Awards, our year-round programme of learning events and initiatives for young people – BAFTA Kids – helps children discover amazing new content and maybe even a possible future career path. We’re delighted to have seen so much enthusiasm for children’s media reflected in the popularity of our BAFTA Kids events this year. With a greater focus on bringing these events outside of London, we’re also proud to have been able to reach even more young people across the country, allowing us to inspire as many children as possible. Each of those honoured in the Children’s Awards tonight is an inspirational figure, not just among their peers but also crucially for the next generation of talent. I’m sure we can all remember the enormous impact our favourite films, games and television programmes made on us in our youth, and your creations will undoubtedly become a treasured part of so many childhoods. If children’s media is to continue to ignite the same passion in future generations, BAFTA must continue to do its work. With your support, our activity can reach beyond the Awards to create opportunities for young people in the long-term. We still need to raise funds to help us achieve this, so if you can support us in any way, please do get in touch. Have a wonderful evening. ¥

an amazing experience and I would recommend it to anyone.” Tianna, the inaugural winner of the competition in 2016, has also been busy, co-hosting a number of events for the charity Action for Children’s Arts. Tianna, Braydon and 2017 runner-ups Harrison, Jess, Kade and Olly have fronted many of our BAFTA Kids’ children’s media preview events and reports for our YouTube channel and baftakids.org throughout 2018. We’ve held more previews than ever before this year, including showcases for Katy, Jamie Johnson, Joe All Alone, Free Rein, Apple & Onion, Cartoon Network’s 25th anniversary (in October) and many more. This year’s Young Presenter competition was a little different: Warner Bros’ Twenty Twenty Productions filmed the final casting session for ITV’s The Big Audition, a brand new factual entertainment
hat did you do for your ninth birthday? Chances are you can’t remember. But one young lad who will never forget his ninth is Braydon, the second winner of BAFTA’s annual Young Presenter competition: he spent his birthday in the presence of HRH The Duke of Cambridge at a special BAFTA fundraising event, where he not only met BAFTA’s royal president but also interviewed actor Tom Hiddleston and presenter Dermot O’Leary for our BAFTA Kids channel. Quite a night, but one that Braydon handled with supreme alacrity, showing a maturity beyond his years – no wonder that he’s recently been signed to an agency and is now reporting for Sky Kids’ new show FYI. “I’ve had a brilliant time with BAFTA Kids since winning in 2017,” Braydon said. “I’ve met lots of great people... I still get very nervous but this has been

series that goes behind the scenes of the casting world. If you were among the 1.5 million viewers who tuned into the episode on 26 October, you will have seen 13-year-old Daniel, from Chesterfield, join Tianna and Braydon as a winner of the competition. You may have met Daniel on the red carpet outside, but if not he will be co-presenting an award this evening as part of his prize. He’s Daniel, Young Presenter already had his first taster of what’s to come as the competition’s latest winner, interviewing winner 2018 Richard Madely, Judy Finnigan and Alan Carr at BAFTA’s special tribute event for This Morning, as Much like the introduction of the new Young well as visiting the sets of Scrambled and the BAFTA- Performer category at this year’s Awards, the Young nominated So Awkward.

I never expected to have them the chance to take a deeper interest in how this amazing opportunity.

I’d like to meet lots of role models for child viewers, reporting that more interesting people: not just the celebrities but all the than half of 12 t0 15-year-olds (53 per cent) thought people behind the scenes, too.” it was important to watch programmes that included people their age. BAFTA’s activities include the aforementioned previews, the Young Game Designers (YGD) competition, events (including our hugely popular roadshows), hospice screenings and more. They allow us to enthuse young minds through providing unique access to award-winning talent and programming, inspiring them to consider a role in our industries in the future. Two events in 2018 particularly stand out. First, for the second year running, 1,000 school children descended on London’s Alexandra Palace in June for a full day of fun-packed activities, which included special masterclasses, music, stunts, live discussions and competitions to explore the various creative roles within children’s media. The event was hosted by Lindsey Russell (Blue Peter ), Ed Petrie (All Over the Place) and Naomi Wilkinson (Naomi’s Nightmares of Nature) and featured a selection of industry professionals and BAFTA-winning talent sharing their knowledge and artistry.

Then, BAFTA Kids took over the Scottish Isle of Arran for a day in September. This bespoke event saw all seven primary schools on the island come together at the local high school for workshops and masterclasses, hosted by Lindsey Russell and Ben Shires (Official Amazing), with guest speaker Joshua Davidson (Night Zookeeper). Finally, it would be remiss not to mention BAFTA Kids’ ongoing partnership with children’s mental health charity Place2Be. Now in its second year (and already extended into 2019), this partnership saw the BAFTA Kids Roadshow visit 12 schools supported by Place2Be all over the UK, from Ayrshire to Margate. Working with Place2Be, we created a new competition for Children’s Mental Health Week in February with the theme of ‘Being Ourselves’ – while we may be similar to our family and friends, there are things that make us individual, too. The competition encouraged children to rejoice these differences by drawing a ‘selfie’ and writing a few lines about why it’s good to celebrate ‘being ourselves’. Twelve winners then had their selfies made into a stunning animated short by the BAFTA-winning studio Karrot Entertainment, creators of Sarah & Duck, which has played at all our BAFTA Kids Roadshows since. If you haven’t seen it yet, we highly recommend you watch it on YouTube (search: ‘Being Ourselves’) – it’s really rather wonderful. It’s been a busy but rewarding year for BAFTA Kids, one that has seen us visit more places outside of the capital than ever before.

SUPPORTING THE INDUSTRY
B
AFTA continues to work with the industry for the industry. For instance, our new writing competition with Rocliffe is a long-running initiative that aims to give a platform to undiscovered screenwriters and help them develop their careers. We first introduced a Rocliffe writing competition for ChildrenÕs Media in 2014, supported by the London Book Fair. However, in 2018, we added Young Adult (YA ) to the entry criteria, so the competition officially celebrates writers of YA & ChildrenÕs Media. We also partnered with Eastside Educational Trust on a pilot scheme to specifically identify and nurture writing talent from the under-20s. In September, we held a showcase of extracts from three new works: Casador by Jessica Lambert; Porth Lllwyd Episode 1: Òthe OgglesprottÓ by Nicholas Davies & Brett Davies; and Siblings by 19-year-old Mohamed A M Osman. The latter has already been approached by a number of agents wanting to represent him. The 2017 finalists took some big steps on their career path, too. Javid Rezai signed with an agent and received his first job on an existing series, writing for Hollyoaks. Maggie Bowler also signed with an agent and has an independent film company interested in optioning two of her scripts, including her BAFTA Rocliffe Showcase script. The third and last 2017 finalist, Rachel Murrell, has had her Showcase script, UpsideDown, optioned by BAFTA-winning Lion TV, with Sue Nott onboard as co-executive producer. We are also supporting more established writers through BAFTA Elevate, now in its sophomore year after representing women directors in 2017 (which included Delyth Thomas, who is a named nominee in the Drama category at this yearÕs Awards). Elevate is designed to support talented people from underrepresented groups progress in their careers, and to help tackle the issue of diversity in our industries as a whole. Several of this yearÕs coterie have written for childrenÕs shows, including Emma Reeves, Janice Okoh and Karissa Hamilton-Bannis. All will take part in a bespoke 12-month programme of support, including networking opportunities, mentoring, tailored panel discussions, masterclasses and workshops focused on professional development. In early July, BAFTA sponsored the Changemakers strand at the ChildrenÕs Media Conference (CMC) for the second year. Two of the recipients of our learning and new talent initiatives represented BAFTA at the event: screenwriter Javid Rezai (BAFTA Rocliffe New Writing Competition), and games artist Anna Hollinrake (BAFTA Breakthrough Brits). Rezai took the opportunity to discuss issues within the industry that he is passionate about, including LGBTQ+ representation in childrenÕs media. Hollinrake, meanwhile, spoke about the importance of maintaining good mental health at work. ¥

CLIVE JUSTER When it comes to iconic British children’s animated shows there are always a few that stand head and shoulders above the rest. One such creation was about a man who lived at 52 Festive Road and had a penchant for visiting his local fancy dress shop. Mr Benn catapulted Clive Juster into a lasting career in children’s media, first through the joint launch of independent production house King Rollo Films and then via intellectual property rights. For his wonderful contribution to the industry, Juster is the this year’s recipient of one of BAFTA’s highest honours. words by rich matthews | images courtesy of recipient

ever underestimate the power of three and a half hours of children’s television. That’s all that was made of iconic BBC series Mr Benn, yet the character has shaped childhood imaginations for nearly 50 years (first broadcast in 1971). Along with creator/artist David McKee, Mr Benn launched editor, director and producer Clive Juster into a lifelong career that saw him become part of the vanguard for a growing aspect of children’s entertainment – licensing of intellectual property (IP). “Mr Benn was on the BBC for 30 years,” marvels Juster. “It’s amazing. Then I’ve been lucky – I’ve Nickelodeon took it over for another 10. Now we’re hoping Factory will remaster the had some of the best films for the 50th anniversary.” people around me. In this Prior to working in children’s media – producing numerous television series, shorts business, it’s teamwork and specials distributed in more than 100 that gets results. countries – Juster, like Mr Benn, tried out many different roles. “I planned to be an architect,” he says. “But I had a hobby making 8mm films, so after doing various jobs I eventually decided on film. I tried the major studios but didn’t have any luck. Most people suggested I go to college, so I started all over again at the National College of Art, then the Royal College. From there I got into the BBC.”

Working at BBC Ealing Studios in the late 1960s, knocking shoulders with the likes of Ken Russell, Spike Milligan and the Pythons, Juster’s nascent career took an unexpected turn when he took on editing duties for Play School and Blue Peter. Little did he realise he was about to find his lasting legacy when an old college friend suggested he replace him on a new show. “I took over editing Mr Benn and immediately became really good friends with David [McKee]. Even now people respond warmly; I get correspondence that makes me realise the impact it had.” Even after the success of the 13 original adventures of the fancy dress shop visitor, life wasn’t plain sailing for Juster. “My dad died and I had to move to Devon,” he notes. “I opened an antiques shop. David used to come down now and again to Mr Benn was on the visit the family. One day he said, ‘Why don’t we make some more films?’ So we set up BBC for 30 years. It’s King Rollo Films with Leo Nielsen.” amazing...

Which makes it all the more appropriate to receive a BAFTA Special Award for a life devoted to children’s television… “I feel someone made a mistake,” Juster chuckles. “I’m honoured, but I’ve been lucky – I’ve had some of the best people around me. In this business, it’s teamwork that gets results. But if I’ve learned anything, it’s to never give up. I mean, one of the pet projects that David and I have is Mr Benn: The Opera. To think that something that began so simply has led to these new things. I guess that’s the way life works.” ¥
Alan Bennett, Juster ultimately became guardian of the King Rollo character licenses. “That side of things always interested me,” he explains. “There’s a shop in Covent Garden selling Tintin merchandise and it’s absolutely beautiful. David and I see it as the shining example of keeping an evergreen property alive. In 2004, we created Rollo Rights to look after the IP. Leo took over the production side and is still going strong. We eventually sold Rollo Rights to Factory about 18 months ago, because I’m knocking on a bit – David more so.”
