Afripedia Documentary TV Series
Afripedia[6] is a documentary series in 5 episodes featuring the new African creative talents and depicting the creative scenes of 6 African countries; Angola, Ivory Coast, Kenya, Ghana, Senegal, and South Africa[7]
Afripedia documentary series features artists Cyrus Kabiru (Kenya), Wiyaala (Ghana)[8], MC Sacerdote (Angola)[9], Hochi Fu[10], Jojo Abot[11], Just a Band (Kenya)[12], Khoudia (Senegal)[13], Bob Mũchiri (Kenya), Titica[14], Nástio Mosquito (Angola), Fanny Beatz (The Ivory Coast)[15], Anto Neosoul (Kenya), Selly Raby Kane (Senegal), Andrew 3D, Serge Attukwei Clottey/Afrogallonism, Delphine Diallo, and others.
Production
Afripedia series was filmed in Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, Angola, Senegal and Ivory Coast[16],[17].
Afripedia was directed by directors Teddy Goitom, Benjamin Taft and Senay Berhe and produced by Teddy Goitom[18].
The Afripedia research started in 2009, and it’s been an ongoing project. The project has been self-funded from the start; directors of Afripedia filmed commercials in order to support the documentary series. As the expenses rose, financing hasn’t come easy[19], so the directors travelled Europe to pitch the idea and finally received funding from a cultural fund,[20] The Swedish Postcode Foundation,[21] to finish the final episodes.
Release
The first episode of the Afripedia series premiered on August 31st, 2014, at the African Film Festival Cinema Africa[22] in Stockholm, Sweden, when it was shown to a live audience.
Afripedia episode Angola and Kenya featuring the kuduro performer Titica, artist Nástio Mosquito, producer MC Sacerdote and 3D animator Andrew Kaggia had its TV premiere on September 25th 2014, at 22.20 on the Swedish National TV Sveriges Television, Kunskapskanalen[23].
Reception
Afripedia documentary series was well received and shown across more than 70 festivals[24][25]. Journalist Ricci Shryock stated: “All in all though, a great mini-doc that shows a slice of Dakar not always recognized on the global scene.”[26].

Afripedia Digital Platform
Teddy Goitom and Senay Berhe are the co-founders of Afripedia[58], which was launched in 2019. Afripedia is a creative industry tool designed for talent search and the world's first platform featuring African descent creatives worldwide. Afripedia is a space of equal access to film, fashion, and design opportunities, where brands, corporations, or creatives can find talent and inject more diversity into an otherwise homogeneous culture and media industry. Afripedia was born out of the well-received[59] documentary series Afripedia that chronicled a new generation of African creatives. After filming the documentary series and realizing that there are so many African creatives with less access to opportunities[60], the co-founders Teddy Goitom and Senay Berhe came up with an idea to create a platform on which this gap could be bridged.
Co-founders Teddy Goitom and Senay Berhe participated in an incubator program New Museum, New Inc. in New York, in 2015-2017[61].
In an interview with Art Africa magazine Teddy Goitom stated that there would be many innovative projects that share Afripedia’s goal; to empower artists and increase the representation of people of African descent working in creative industries[62].
Awards
In 2020, the Afripedia.com platform and its designer Biola Kadiri Fisher won the best digital platform[63] at the Swedish Design Awards Design S[64].
