The prestigious RTS Craft & Design Awards acknowledges the finest in a huge variety of skills and processes involved in programme production, from art direction to digital effects.

Nominated for best Visual Effects – Special Effects HUMAN BODY: PUSHING THE LIMITS takes the audience on an exhilarating and informative journey through the miracle of the human body. The four part series uses stunning CGI and dramatic reconstruction to convey pin-sharp, primetime factual at its best.

Mike Tucker, Miniature Effects Supervisor at the Model Unit said: “We were very lucky that Producer Tim Goodchild was so open to mixing and matching techniques and I'm delighted that model work and digital work can still work alongside each other so seamlessly. The team from Rushes deserve as much credit as we do in making the model sequences look so good.”
