This is really important to us, and it should be to you, if have ever endured a horrible Nollywood movie…
Nollywood filmmaker, Chris Ihidero is set to hold a storytelling class for young and established writers, producers and directors in the Nigerian movie industry.
Chris, who is working in partnership with the British Council, has over 100 episodes of TV drama, including the classic Fuji House of Commotion, MTVShuga, and other projects to his credit.
Ihidero says ‘the workshop will empower a class of thirty-five (35) participants, following a rigorous selection process. Our idea is to prepare participants for opportunities that extend their enhanced skills by servicing the industry with better storytelling. This is not a screenwriting workshop or script clinic, but a capacity development workshop for practicing creative professionals to improve on structural storytelling.’
The workshop which will hold from October 27 to 29, 2015, will be facilitated by faculty members, including advertising whizkid Steve Babaeko, acclaimed TV writer/director Victor ‘Sanchez’ Aghahowa, seasoned director Tope Oshin, journalist and culture advocate Jahman Anikulapo, writer Toni Kan and others to be announced.
