Hollywood and other established film industries are much older and sophisticated than Nollywood and therefore would reward their practitioners better.
“Moreover, you cannot divorce the economic reality of the environment in which we practice from the industry. The situation in Nollywood would not be far from the social, political and economic situation of the country. Lack of adequate infrastructures, lack of adequate support from the government and foundations that support filmmaking would definitely affect the welfare of Nollywood’s practitioners. To be honest, we aren’t where we ought to be, we still have a long way to go.”

ReplyDeleteAfi grammer na..
DeleteWhich grammar? Where? Many primary and secondary school teachers ought to be lined up and shut. This text message is full of "grammar" to you? Which way, Africa's most populous country???
DeleteShut as in up or shot as in kill?
DeleteThanks for the correction. The correct word to use is SHOT. As in riddled with bullets on the shores of Bar beach.
DeleteThanks for the truth. JIB will not allow somebody to rest on Facebook. Unnecessarily bragging up and down.
ReplyDeleteSo the American government supports Hollywood? I don't know just asking and Nope I don't want to Google. But if you ask me, I will say greed is the problem. Make good movies, get it on the cinema pay your actors or better still sell on Netflix pay your actors. If you keep calling 400 million naira made on a movie project what is stopping you from paying a lead actor 5 or even 10 m plus if you add up all the back end workers extras etc it can't be up to 50 persons, Naija never does big productions like the US except for maybe Mo abdu and maybe Kemi Adetiba so pay.

DeleteAll these women in the industry that do movies are under rated. They really make good movies.
ReplyDeleteNot all their movies are great but they make much more effort than their male counterparts. Most of the actresses have tried to produce or direct something or have a film on Netflix while only one or two actors ever tried. Tomorrow when the men get sick and need funding, people blame the women for being richer. Well, they are rich cos they are investing more. Men should try too.
DeleteAnd who gives them the capital or you think the male actors don't want produce as well?
DeleteNollywood should be banned
ReplyDeleteEspecially those Yoruba movies, 25 years flash back and you see LCD or plasma television hanging on the wall. This is repugnant to my eyes
