THERE is great excitement at KCFE this week to learn that a group of students from the Multimedia with Graphic Design course at KCFE are nominated for a People’s Choice Award for their digital magazine “Fast Forward”.

The National Student Media Awards are open to students from every college across Ireland and it’s respected by media industry leaders.

The student lifestyle magazine “Fast Forward” was designed and created by Dominique Ammann Barry, Lara Norrish, Tara Ogden and Robert Tobin who are completing a one-year Multimedia with Graphic Design course at KCFE under the mentorship of Course Coordinator Siobhan Murphy.

“It’s a phenomenal achievement for this group who started working on the magazine last October, surveying KCFE students about what they wanted from the first ever KCFE student magazine,” according to KCFE Principal Mary Lucey.

“The interactive publication covers a diverse range of topics from showcasing the musical and artistic talent at KCFE to study tips and student-friendly recipes, depicted with innovative animations and graphics. The achievement is all the greater considering their digital publication is nominated alongside well established university publications, some that have the benefit of editorial teams, funding and a tradition of publishing that goes back decades.”

The winners will be announced at an awards ceremony in the Aviva Stadium, Donnybrook on this Thursday, April, 11. The magazine can be viewed by clicking here
