Niyi Akin

Digital Showcase

In addition to our live showcase earlier this year, we have brought together a Digital Showcase to feature the skills and talents of the graduating year of 2021.

Here you can explore Niyi Akin's digital showreel, which includes theatrical and screen scenes and an audio reel. Look out later in the year for a short film written and directed by professional film-makers.
