The Association of Motion Picture Sound (AMPS) has announced the winners of its 2025 Television Drama, Factual Film & Product Awards.

The awards were handed out at a presentation yesterday at Greenwich University hosted by AMPS Chair George Foulgham and Vice Chair Kate Davis.

Attended by AMPS members, nominees, and invited industry guests, the event celebrated outstanding work in film and television sound and audio innovation.

The AMPS Awards recognise the best in film and television sound craft and technologies. Voted on by working sound professionals, the awards spotlight creative and technical excellence across multiple disciplines. In recognition of the collaborative nature of sound, AMPS also awards Certificates of Merit to each of the creative team members who contribute to the winning soundtracks.

The winners of the 2025 AMPS Awards are:

Excellence in Sound for a Television Drama

SLOW HORSES

Excellence in Sound for a Factual Film

SECRET WORLD OF SOUND WITH DAVID ATTENBOROUGH

Excellence in Sound for a Production Hardware or Software Product

The Television Drama and Factual Film category winners have also been nominated for the 2025 BAFTA Television Craft Awards.

This event follows the earlier presentation of the AMPS Feature Film Award, which went to the sound team behind Dune: Part Two. That same team went on to win both the BAFTA and Academy Award for Best Sound, “reinforcing AMPS’ position as a respected voice within the global sound community.”

AMPS recently welcomed new leadership through its annual Council elections as part of its continued development. George Foulgham steps into the role of Chair, joined by Kate Davis, returning as Vice Chair, and Louise Burton, newly elected as Honorary Secretary. The AMPS Council is made up of active professional volunteers from across the sound disciplines, elected by their peers to help shape the organisation’s future.

“It’s an honour to step into the role of Chair at such an exciting time for AMPS. These awards highlight the extraordinary talent and innovation that define our industry, from exceptional storytelling to the tools that make it possible. I’m proud to be part of a community that continues to raise the bar in sound, and I look forward to building on the brilliant work of my predecessors as we shape the future together,” said George Foulgham, AMPS Chair.

“This year’s winners embody the creativity, precision, and passion that lie at the heart of great sound. From powerful drama and immersive factual storytelling to groundbreaking technologies, each award reflects the craft and commitment of those working behind the scenes. It’s a privilege to celebrate such inspiring work, and to see the AMPS community continue to champion excellence across every corner of our industry,” said Kate Davis, AMPS Vice-Chair.

Andrew Wilson, who served as Chair of AMPS from 2020 to 2025 was presented with an AMPS Fellowship in recognition of his outstanding leadership and long-standing contribution to the sound community.

“It’s been an incredible honour to serve as Chair of AMPS during a time of real change for our industry. I’m deeply proud of what we’ve achieved together — from strengthening our community to raising the profile of sound across the screen industries. To be recognised with a Fellowship by a group of professionals I’ve long looked up to as some of the best in the business is truly humbling, and I look forward to continuing to support AMPS as we grow into our next chapter,” said Andrew Wilson, AMPS Fellow and Council Member

The AMPS Awards are supported by lDOLBY LABORATORIES, PINEWOOD GROUP, SENNHEISER, RAYCOM and BUBBLEBEE INDUSTRIES.
