  • Hi @Canisha Chakadya !
    Strangely enough I am also based in Barcelona ( Hey @Ross McClure !) so I know I am not what you are looking for right now. But I have done a similar mentoring role for a project based in Colombia, organised by Black Women Disrupt in the USA and working distance went great. I assisted my mentee at every stage of the project but, of course, I wasn't on set with her.
    If in the future you have other programmes organised differently or maybe focused on screenwriting, I'd love to join :)

    All the best with the programme.
    Kind regards,
  • @Ross McClure Hi Ross, thank you for expressing an interest. Yes, the mentor must be based in the UK as the Mentees may need on-site assitance on shoots or in-person help editing.
  • Hi Canisha! To be a mentor on the program, do we have to be based in the UK? I'm currently in Barcelona and a mentor on the Good Nugget 2021 scheme. I'm interested in this as I was in London for 10+ years previously and feel I could contribute well to it. Thanks
