An Abuja-based film maker, High Definition Film (HDF) Academy is set to launch a film-making reality TV show called Script2Screen Africa.
The Founder, Bright Wonder in a statement, said the reality TV show which is themed ‘Film as a catalyst for revolution’, is focused on raising a new breed of filmmakers who understand that film making is a business that has the capacity to create social impact in a society.
He said Script2Screen Africa seeks to explore this social impact “Through training, mentorship, and by supporting the vision of these trailblazers that will shape thought provoking short and feature films that will pioneer positive revolution in Nigeria, and across the continent of Africa.”
Bright explained that in 2017 auditions were held across Nigeria where 60 people were selected who will undergo intensive film making training as well as get mentored by notable names in the industry.
Script2screen which was a training programme of the academy for several years has rebranded as Script2Screen Africa: Focus Nigeria “So, expect future editions of Script2Screen Africa; Focus Ghana, Focus South Africa, Focus Kenya,” said Bright.
The project would last from March 24 to April 21, 2018 and will be aired on several local TV stations, the founder noted.
Bright who has produced movies like ‘Broken’, ‘Remarkable’, ‘Diary of Triplets’, said preparations are underway for a new movie, ‘If I Am President!’
