About B3 Origin

B3 Origin was first created as an online programme that was specifically designed to help Black, Asian and multicultural creatives working across the fields of film, digital media, the visual arts and theatre to carry on during the ongoing COVID-19 crisis. It provided one-on-one mentoring and access to funding to support these individuals to push forward with their careers and projects. Origin offered participants a unique opportunity to re-assess their professional practice, refine their skills, and gain the confidence and contacts they needed to energise their projects.

What past participants say

B3 Origin testimonials

“The support from B3 was a guiding light, teaching me new techniques or reminding me of ones I had forgotten to use in my creative toolkit. Not only that it was invaluable for the insight, mentoring and connections I was able to make whilst on the course that have continued with me to this day”

- Pardeep Sahota (Writer/ Director/ Editor)

"The experience, the knowledge, the thinking outside the box and the encouragement and the fact of saying ‘you can do it; but breaking down how you can do it, is invaluable”

- Muriel Narh (Writer / Director)

“B3 is very valuable, because it's the little things that you never would have thought of that they tell you and that is the most valuable that will gives you the edge above everybody else”.

- Shakira Francis (Actor/ Director/ Writer)

"Before I completed B3 TalentLab and B3 Origin I didn't think I belonged in the "room". The programmes together with the support given, taught me not only do I belong but I'm here to stay.”

- Eva Edo (Writer/ Storyteller)
