Screen Nation

The Screen Nation Film & TV Awards (formerly the BFM Film and TV Awards) was founded in 2003 by Charles Thompson, as a platform to raise the profile of Black British and international film and television talent.

The Screen Nation Award statuette is based on a West African mask and was designed by the renowned, Jamaican-born sculptor George Fawokan Kelly. "The statuette signifies via the mask that there is a change coming. A mask takes you from one state into another and in this case from being unrecognized and unrewarded to being recognized and celebrated".

The Awards

The Screen Nation Film and TV Awards is a televised event, which takes place in October during Black History Month and combines the glamour of international movie stars alongside British talent. The awards ceremony - dubbed by the media as the "Black BAFTAs" - brings together actors, actresses, directors and filmmakers from the UK and international film and TV industry.

The 2007 awards ceremony will see actor Morgan Freeman honoured with the "Outstanding Contribution Award", newsreader Moira Stuart honoured with the "Edric Connor Inspiration Award" and American TV director-producer Stan Lathan with the new "Vanguard Award." A final honorary award - the "Classic TV Award" - will be presented to the television series "Roots" in what is its 30th anniversary year.

Voting

The Screen Nation Film and TV Awards are voted by both the Screen Nation committee and the general public.

The honorary and major awards, such as the Outstanding Contribution to Film and TV Award and the Edric Connor Inspiration Award and the Emerging Talent Award are decided by the Screen Nation committee. The People’s Choice Categories - Favourite Male TV star, Favourite Female TV Star, Favourite Music Performance on Film/TV, Favourite Presenter, Favourite Reality Star, International Film, US Male Screen Personality Film/TV, US Female Screen Personality Film/TV, West African Film Actor, West African Film Actress and West African Film - are voted for by the public.
