Nguyen Quang Huy

Bringing Vietnamese Creativity to the Global Stage 

Building on the foundations of design and conceptual thinking developed during his time at BUV's School of Communications & Creative Industries, Nguyen Quang Huy continues to push creative boundaries across photography, design, and filmmaking. With a multidisciplinary approach and a passion for experimentation, Quang Huy has established a distinctive artistic identity through creative projects recognised in both national and international competitions.  

The year 2025 marked a significant milestone in Quang Huy's filmmaking journey. His short film TAM “breaking” received more than 11 awards at international film festivals across the United Kingdom, India, Bhutan, Canada, the United States, Spain, Sweden, and Australia. Building on this success, another short film, THE NOTE, earned the Gold Award in the Vertical Filmmaking category at the Global 100Hrs Creative Marathon Challenge and the Best Narrative Award at the Vertical Shorts Festival in the United States. These achievements reflect Quang Huy's willingness to experiment with different cinematic formats and approaches to visual storytelling. 

While filmmaking has opened new avenues for artistic exploration, photography remains a powerful medium through which Quang Huy expresses his connection to Vietnamese cultural identity. His photography series VIỆT received the Photo Story Award at Let's On Air 2025, celebrating Vietnamese heritage and national identity through a contemporary artistic lens. By reinterpreting familiar cultural elements through creative imagery, the project offers a fresh perspective on how Vietnamese traditions can resonate with modern audiences. 

Quang Huy's photography has also gained recognition across international creative publications, with projects featured in magazines including Holyway, StyleCruze (Japan), Edith, Malvie, Moevir, GMARO (France), Vigour, IMIRAGE (Canada), and Selin (the Netherlands). These features have brought his work beyond competitions and exhibitions, introducing his creative vision to wider artistic communities across different countries. 

From developing his creative foundations at BUV to receiving international recognition, what distinguishes Quang Huy's journey is not simply the number of awards, but his determination to continually reinvent himself as a creative practitioner. Each artistic discipline represents an opportunity to challenge conventions, explore different perspectives, and develop new ways of communicating through visual storytelling. 

As Quang Huy continues to explore photography, design, and filmmaking, his journey reflects the ambition of a young Vietnamese creative who is unafraid to experiment, push artistic boundaries, and bring a distinctive Vietnamese creative identity to the global stage.
