The eagerly awaited Rookie Awards 2024 finalists have been revealed, and Think Tank students have earned spots in multiple categories.

The Rookie Awards is all about connecting talented artists with the right industry - and is perhaps the best way for up-and-coming artists to have their work recognized by industry professionals. This year, a remarkable 6,815 entries, from 103 countries and 568 schools, were judged by 148 distinguished experts from the digital arts industries. 

The quality of the entries was outstanding, and we're incredibly proud that so many Think Tank students have been named finalists. These finalists now have a chance to win the prestigious title of Rookie of the Year in their respective categories, and finalists in the Career Opportunities categories are in with a chance of earning an entry-level position, internship, or mentorship at some of the world’s top studios.

Without further ado, here is the full list of Think Tank finalists:
