Kanya King, the creator of the Mobo Awards, has told The Sun she is planning to do the same for films – she intends to launch Mobo Screen, which will encourage more ethnic people to break into the film business, and as part of this scheme will stage an annual awards ceremony. "We are working with the British Film Council to get more ethnic representation in the business," she told the paper. "The Mobos have come so far in seven years, I am sure we can echo that success in the movie world."
