A graduate from Bournemouth University will be celebrating today after his work on the film Interstellar won an Oscar for Best Visual Effects. It's Andrew Lockley's second Oscar - he also won in 2011 for his work on Inception.

Andy graduated from Bournemouth University in 2000 and now works at visual effects house Double Negative where he has worked on films like The Dark Knight, Hot Fuzz and the Harry Potter franchise.

Earlier this month he received a BAFTA for Special Visual Effects for Interstellar.
