Industry Course Designed To Help Improve Hair & Make-Up Experience For Actors From Ethnic Minority Backgrounds Backed By Prime Video & British Broadcasters

EXCLUSIVE: Prime Video, Sky and British broadcasters have backed an initiative to train up crew in hair and make-up for actors from ethnic minority backgrounds.

The Textured Hair & Make-up for Deep Skin-Tones Accelerator course comes from Dandi, an offshoot of TriForce Creative Network, which produces long-running ITV quiz Sorry, I Didn’t Know about Black history.

Courses across the UK will recruit 10 participants across three streams — Elevate, Evolve and Equip — bringing together emerging talent with transferable skills from outside the industry, mid‑career hair and make-up professionals, and existing crew needing upskilling.
