Film making is a big business and Nigerian film makers are heading to join countries like the united state, France, Britain and China who are pouring money into film making and ripping the reward of made believe.
Recent trends around various areas of the industry shows that the industry has the potential to revolutionise the nation’s economy.
Nollywood is home for africans around the world who love to watch Nigerian cynicism, can testify that the quality of Nollywood films that are being released and premiered on Cinema, Netflix or Amazon prime is prove that Nollywood film makers are not joking
The film Industry is a significant part of the Arts, Entertainment and Recreation Sector in Nigeria contributing 2.8% (NGN289biliion) to Nigeria’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
It is one of the priority sectors identified in the Economic Recovery and Growth plan of the Federal Government of Nigeria with a planned $1billion in export revenue.
A list of some of the promising Nigerian Producers that has proven that Nollywood can make movies that equals Hollywood standard big budget films includes my five favourites:
Mo Abudu
Mo Abudu Recent’s film ‘HER PERFECT LIFE’ among all other films she had produced in the past years are all indication that film making business is a multi-billion dollar industry.
No matter the aspect or the type story her film is telling, she always ensure that she spice her stories with a little bit of glamour to show the world that Nigeria has it all.
The cost of making the movie run all the way from the cast feature down to props and set.
She is one of the best investor to have venture into film in Nigerian and Nollywood need hundred of Mo Abudu who knows how to bring the value of budget film production into i the industry.
Kunle Afolayan
Sir, Kunle Afolayan is without a doubt a prolific Nigerian director/producer. His style of film production over the years has projected Nollywood in a different posture of story narratives with a backdrop of traditional infusion.
His films are often based on the precolonial era of Nigeria with such sophisticated details to the background of Nigeria before the arrival of the Whitman.
His film budget is least estimated at 300million Naira to make a film as the spend money building villages, cities among other expensive cost that gives him the best picture.
His recent Film, Aníkúlápó for his Netflix Original came on high budget to produce
Kemi Adetiba
If you haven’t seen ‘KING OF BOYS’ then you need to head to your Netflix and watch the movie. Until recently, Nollywood films were somehow too boring and too predictable even for an average person to watch, the delivery of the story in a whole is always the same direction.
Until the likes of Kemiba Adetiba stepped into the production scene and changed the game of Nollywood production, a lot of Nigerian were substituting Nollowood films for Hollywood and other Woods from Across the world.
However, things has change and Nigerians and turning back to Nollywood to watch mind blowing films from Nigerian independent producers like Kemi Adetiba.
Her movies caries great casting, plot twist, suspense and action to thrilled the audience. She is the real definition of feature film in Nollywood.
Ayo Makun
AY is not a stranger in the Nigerian entertainment industry, having being a successful comedian for almost two decades.
He venture into film making and changed the concept of film production with his premium style of glamour, exoticness to suit the tv screen. Like Mo Abudu, AY films are often high budget films as a result of A-list cast and crew etc.
Ay knows how to write a fat cheque to hire capable hands to make a quality film.
