My inspiration to join the film industry was passion but to a large extent I believe it was curiosity. But I will say I am still disappointed with the government for not taking this industry seriously and not making efforts to put up a proper structure that would coordinate this sector.
My advice to everyone including those looking forward to join the industry would be:
Pay attention to details when shooting.
Keep and respect time because everything here is managed by time.
Surround yourself with those who do great work so you are able to learn.
Filmmakers or content creators should endeavour to produce consumable content.
Respect each other.
Be patient and stay focused.
Challenges i have met are quite many but I will go with a few.
Production is very expensive.
The industry especially the tech world is growing each day so what you bought expensively today may be rendered useless in the shortest time possible.
