UK - One of the most prestigious student awards for lighting design, The Michael Northen Bursary, is again open for submissions. Established in 2001, it rewards students who show exemplary talent in lighting design. The Bursary is judged on a project that the student has produced within the past academic year and awarded by the ALD in conjunction with ETC and The Mousetrap Foundation. The organisers emphasise that this is a design bursary and the entries are judged purely on imaginative design and creativity in lighting.

Applicants are asked to submit work showing the development and processes of a successfully realised lighting design performance project. The project must have been completed at some point during the last 12 months (July 2006 - June 2007). Materials such as photographs, storyboards, plans and any other work the student feels appropriate can be submitted, along with a 500-word synopsis of the project detailing the processes used to realise the lighting design. The entries will be judged by a panel of industry professionals. Last year these included Paule Constable, Mark Jonathan and Natasha Chivers.

The Bursary Award is open to all students and not just ALD members. The Michael Northen Bursary Award winner will receive £500, the ETC and ALD runners up will both receive £250. Judging will take place during August 2007.Submissions must be received at the ALD office by Monday 1 July 2007.
