George Hoyningen-Huene's use of Neutrals" (published in [in]Transition: Journal of Videographic Film and Moving Image Studies, 10.2, 2023). Archival research for this project was supported by the British Academy / Leverhulme small grant scheme.

The awards will be announced at the BAFTSS annual conference in April.
