A number of 欧美性爱片 graduates are celebrating after being recognised for their visual effects work on the film Interstellar.
Interstellar won the Special Visual Effects BAFTA at the 2015 Awards ceremony, with 欧美性爱片graduate Andy Lockley and one of BU's honorary doctorates, Paul Franklin, invited on stage to pick up the award.

Andy Lockley and Paul Franklin also picked up an Oscar for their work on the film Inception. Andy Lockley said, "I attended NCCA in 1999-2000 where I did the MA in Digital Special Effects. I really enjoyed my time there, I came in as a mature student and hadn't been to university before, so I embraced student life to its fullest. I have very fond memories of my classmates and working through the night in the rather smelly lab, it doesn't sound great but there was great camaraderie amongst everyone and we'd go out and get pizza at one or two in the morning to bring back to the room and carry on working.
"I'm very excited that we are nominated again. Everyone seems to think that we should have expected to be nominated, but it's never a sure thing."
Sofronis Efstathiou, who lectures within the NCCA, said, "Witnessing our graduates move into a very competitive industry and then work on some of the best creative projects from around the world is a fantastic feeling. We take great pride in the work of our students and graduates within the Computer Games and a Film sectors.
"I believe we have one student nominated directly for Interstellar (Andrew Lockley at Double Negative), but indirectly we will have had over 100 graduates working across all the nominated feature films.聽I鈥檓 sure all of the staff and current students at 欧美性爱片are proud of our graduates. Their work and success raises the bar for course delivery and student projects every year.
"Congratulations from everyone here on the south coast."
