Behind the Scenes: I am Skillful, I am Talented

Step into the captivating world of our ‘I am Skillful, I am Talented‘ project with an exclusive behind-the-scenes glimpse. You can watch the final video from this groundbreaking initiative on our blog post here. Our Behind the Scenes reel offers a unique perspective into the making of this remarkable project.

From the very beginning, the ‘I am Skillful, I am Talented’ project has been an endeavour focused on shining a spotlight on the skills and talents of individuals with lived experiences of the asylum system in our borough. But that is only half of the story we are eager to share!

This project is equally about the exceptional trainees behind the lens, who are experts by experience in their own right. These remarkable individuals came together with a shared purpose – to learn, to grow, and to skillfully narrate these stories in the most authentic and impactful way possible. Our Behind the Scenes reel celebrates their dedication, creativity, and the immense talent they brought to this project.

As you watch the Behind the Scenes reel, we hope you will gain a profound appreciation for the hard work, passion, and determination that went into the making of this project. Prepare to be inspired by the stories that our trainees have skillfully woven together, using their own experiences to illuminate the untapped potential and vibrant spirit that exists within the refugee community.

With deep gratitude, we extend our heartfelt thanks once again to the Wharfedale Foundation for their unwavering support and generous funding that made this project a reality. Their belief in our vision and the transformative power of storytelling has been instrumental in our ability to showcase the immense talent and resilience within our community.
