What are the NABA Cinema Awards?
The NABA Cinema Awards offer every year the opportunity to celebrate the best audiovisual and cinematic projects created by students from the Academy's Media Design and New Technologies and Set Design Areas. An event that takes place between Milan and Rome, involving both campuses and bringing back to the fore the work carried out during the Academic Year, shared publicly through two award ceremonies — one for each city.
Conceived as a moment of closure to a shared journey, the NABA Cinema Awards bring students' projects out of the classroom and into the cinema, in front of an audience and a jury of industry professionals. A concrete step that offers our students the opportunity to see their projects measured against a real audience and a professional eye.
