MultiChoice Talent Factory (MTF) Academy Class of 2023 has passed out in flying colours.
The course, which lasted one year, involved the graduates honing their skills in screenwriting, editing, production, directing, and business of filmmaking.
The students gained hands-on experience through immersions in various TV and film projects. The Class of 2023’s skills shone as they completed an intensive 3-week online New York Film Academy course on the production of documentaries, music videos, and TV commercials, which exposed them to global networks.
They also produced two short films for Zee World, as well as other short films that have been selected for African International Film Festival (AFRIFF) and Africa International Human Rights Film Festival (AIHRIFF).
In addition, they produced two feature films as their final projects, which will be broadcast on Africa Magic channels on DStv, GOtv and Showmax.
The Class of 2023’s top three graduates received internships in recognition of their exceptional work and achievements. Segun Elvis Damptey from Ghana received a two-week internship at a film/TV production firm in South Africa. Abdulaziz Attah from Nigeria received a two-week Bollywood internship with Zee World, and Samuel Ogundeyi from Nigeria received an eight-week scholarship to New York Film Academy.
The Class of 2023 graduates now joined the illustrious MTF alumni network, and will be connected to industry professionals from across the continent through the re-launched MTF portal.
