As a global leader in hair innovation, style and trends, Official Hair Partner Schwarzkopf Professional has supported the photoshoot announcing the 2024 BAFTA Breakthrough Cohort within the UK.
As part of its role as Official Hair Partner for the BAFTA TV Awards, Schwarzkopf Professional was delighted to style the 2024 BAFTA Breakthrough UK Cohort during their announcement photoshoot, which celebrates the ‘must-watch’ creatives working in film, games and television, from across the country.
This collaboration forms part of Schwarzkopf Professional’s “Partners in Craft” initiative, which strives to provide exceptional opportunities for the Schwarzkopf Pro community, to showcase their skills and creativity in exciting environments outside of the salon.
Over the course of two days, Schwarzkopf Professional Ambassador Philipp Haug joined forces with Seckington’s Senior Art Director, Chantelle Jones to create both beautiful and authentic hair looks for the 21 members of the UK cohort. The pair ensured the cohort looked and felt fantastic during the photoshoot, ahead of the announcement of their brilliant achievements. Working alongside fashion stylists and makeup teams, Philipp and Chantelle used the OSiS range from Schwarzkopf Professional, to create the camera-ready looks seen across the entire UK shoot.
BAFTA Breakthrough is the arts charity’s flagship talent initiative supported by Netflix, providing a springboard to creatives spanning craft specialisms from costume design, production, casting, editing and games design, to performance, directing, composing and cinematography.
