The Welshman is a 听documentary about the life of Owain Williams, one of the founders of Mudiad Amddiffyn Cymru (the Movement for the Defence of Wales), who was convicted听
for planting an explosive device on the site of the Tryweryn reservoir. The film was created听

鈥淢y studies at 麻豆传媒高清版 really helped me be pro-active, the biggest thing it taught me was the beauty in collaboration. It enabled me to explore my creativity and gave me stepping stones into the industry. 听
听鈥淚 am absolutely over the moon that my most recent film The Welshman has won听
a BAFTA! Being at University also taught me how to be resourceful - I made The Welshman with zero budget and that is definitely a skill I mastered with my peers at Bangor.鈥

鈥淚 enjoyed Creative Studies because it gave me the opportunity to try out a few different elements that all related to my interest in media. I learnt a lot about PR and this really helped us promote The Welshman on social media, with over 25,000 views in 2 days, the film trailer almost went viral!鈥澨
