3Point0 Labs, a renowned talent management company led by Marquel Martin, is making waves in the entertainment industry with the launch of its new talent and literary advisory division. This division has been kickstarted with the signing of The Black Book producer, Anakle Films. Marquel Martin, best known for his work with UFC champion Francis Ngannou, is set to revolutionize the entertainment industry with this new venture.
3Point0 Labs was established in 2022 after Marquel Martin left his role as a combat sports agent at CAA. The company gained recognition for Martin’s successful placement of MMA star Ngannou in the Fast & Furious film F9. With the launch of the new division, 3Point0 Labs Talent & Literary Management, the company aims to bring a fresh perspective to talent representation, film and TV production, and business advisory services.
Anakle Films, led by Editi Effiong and co-founder Mimi Bartels, has joined forces with 3Point0 Labs to enhance the representation of Black and African stories in the entertainment industry. Anakle Films gained popularity with its Netflix hit, The Black Book, which resonated with audiences in 69 countries. The film, directed by Effiong, tells the gripping story of a bereaved deacon seeking justice for his son, and it has put Nigeria on the map as a major player in the international film scene.
Effiong and Bartels expressed their excitement about the partnership with 3Point0 Labs and their shared mission to elevate African stories. They are committed to showcasing the richness and diversity of African storytelling on a global platform. The success of The Black Book has set the stage for future collaborations between Anakle Films and 3Point0 Labs, with a focus on pushing boundaries and achieving new milestones in the industry.
Andrew Cutrow, Manager and Chief Business Officer of 3Point0 Labs, emphasized the company’s dedication to providing comprehensive management and branding services for its clients. By leveraging the talents of creative forces like Editi Effiong and Anakle Films, 3Point0 Labs aims to set new standards in the entertainment world. Cutrow believes that the partnership with Anakle Films will open doors to endless possibilities and create a legacy of groundbreaking storytelling.
The collaboration between 3Point0 Labs and Anakle Films marks a significant moment in the entertainment industry. By bringing together top talents and visionary storytellers, the partnership is poised to redefine the landscape of African storytelling on a global scale. As the journey unfolds, we can expect to witness the birth of new narratives, fresh perspectives, and captivating tales that will captivate audiences worldwide.
