@TheFilmmaker How do I communicate to you?

Mr Kayode if you are passionate about ur dreams I dont think someone's comment would kill it, rather I will advice you to pick the ones that are useful and throw the rest away instead of reacting they way u did. Well! I dont know what he said to you but may be ur actions are justifiable

I will be expecting ur mails

My email address is villageboii@hotmail.com. I need to see a sample of a comedy sketch basically about any Nigerian pop culture so I see hw creative u r

Seconding The Avatar......The Last Airbender Was the Shiznit

Nice One

Its a Comedy Sketch and Satire series. Something close to Saturday Night Live but it wont be Live

Well! The missing position at the moment is a writer which is what we need to get going. We appreciate your interest though

No one yet

Good day reader, please if you are a good and creative writer of comedy sketches, satirical and parodies then holla below. Im starting a satirical and comedy sketches variety show, to be broadcasted in Africa Magic Hausa. If u can write in both English and Hausa language then its an added advantage. Thanks

Just saw it yesterday in Abuja; best movie for 2014 in my opinion...no much action but very involving

I love the show even though it looks like a telemundo rip off..they have interesting characters that Chevair guy dey always make me laff....the guy no dey ever play and Victoria is a good schemer but I knw she will end badly sha as the show concludes

@Whiteniccur Why r u talking to yourself nah?

I tire oh...they are Soap Operas @ poster

WOH!!! Nice trailer looks promising

Sorry to bust ur bubble but me think ure starting on a wrong note lemme. Advice u. But first lemme commend ur. Effort and. Zeal as a filmmaker.... The internet is very. Cheap and is very easy for people to. Just jump and tell u they r down with u until when u get to the battle ground then they will start disappearing one by one.. U sound more like someone that wants to start a filmm academy and not a production outfit cos since ure a scriptwriter u wld have started by u writing a script. And let the forum know that a script is on ground and u need a team to fill up some positio among the cast and crew. U shldnt get all ur cast and crew online cos I believe as a serious filmmaker u shld knw some people offline then u come to nairaland for fillers and pls u shld have and experienced crew member in one of these positions: Producer, director or Cinematographer......gudluck on ur project

Some sakare at 1030 avenue

Like I said one of our greatest problemm is Lagos Monopoly of the entertainment industry cos deir is dis belief that u have to enter Lagos to make it and assuch it affects creativity coming from other regions of Nigeria. When u get to Lagos sometimes or rather mosttimes the gamecontrollers force you to conform to what they want. And I want to believe there is improvement in nollywood just that its moving at a very slow pace and until Indie Producers starts producing their movies reallife and not on paper the status quo might remain the same

Lagos monopoly is the Bane of creativity in the nigerian entertainment industry

I detest that name Nollywood myself...its a sign of mediocrity what stop the industry to think of a name that reflects our heritage or name it after a place in Nigeria

Thanks prof

Title: Speech & Play
Genre: Variety Talk Show
Speech & Play is a weekly variety television talk show that will feature a diverse mix of guest appearances, thought-provoking discussions, artistic expression and human interest stories all while celebrating local ingenuity.
t is evident that our unity and coexistence as Nigerians is threatened by series of ethno-religious crises and we are loosing our intrinsic people’s pride and prestige. Also, we are as a nation is losing our cultural heritage due to overwhelming external influences.
Speech & Play seeks to serve as a probable means of curtailing this anomaly, by bringing traditional norms, cultural norms and historical background to the fore. It seeks for us all to rediscover our rich heritage, unite us in a colourful path, intricately fusing education, orientation and entertainment in one.
Speech & Play will feature content/segments in its variety-talk show that will foster unity and better understanding to Nigerians on the diversity of their Nation by which Nigerians will learn to tolerate and accommodate each other's heritage. The array of segments creatively design to hit the screen when Speech & Play kicks off will help Nigerians understand and celebrate their heritage and give them opportunity to share their opinions on what they feel are possible solutions to problems affecting us as a people. Our goal is to be a unifying force in Nigeria through which we can understand our diversity and the world by featuring socio-cultural based contents, helping people find a voice, preserving the Nigerian heritage, inspiring the Nigerian dream and promoting artistic expression

Hey fellow Nairalanders i applied for the Youwin business plan competition with a talk show production as a business and i have received an email that it was selectec. I was invited for an interview and business plan defence before a panel of judges, the date and location will soon be sent to us. Even though ive done a thorough research and ive been nursing and developing this idea for over 6 years now, i need some advices cos no matter how creative you are you will get better ideas in Nairaland and so i have this questions for my fellow Nairalanders creatives and critics:
Which is currently the best talk show in Nigeria?
Would you watch an interesting talk show if its aired on local terrestial television(AIT/NTA) or it has to be on Satellite television DSTV and Co?
What kind of topics and personalities would interest you?
What do you think of the idea of watching a talkshow on mobile devices using a mobile application?
Lets discuss so i can broaden my horizon...i will post a brief info of my talk show below

Aiiight

U guys are not considering the north in ur plans....
In the 19 northern states of nigeria only abuja has cinema at two locations ceddi plaza and silverbird mall...

Cr7lomo u r truly the world best tell him more

Na wetin dey reign now oh

I know a lot of Nigerians are upset about the award after expecting John Obi Mikel going ahead to say he was cheated and that the award is politics but as far as I'm concerned this is one of the fairest CAF African Footballer of the Year. Let's look at the excuses most people that are for Mikel are given and let me make my analysis.
Mikel won African Cup of Nations
Mikel won the UEFA Europa League
Mikel won UEFA Champions League
Let's start with the UEFA Champions League
If I can understand the award clearly it says CAF African Footballer of the Year 2013; Chelsea won the champions league in 2012 so a players performance should not reflect for 2013 talking about performance, how will you rate Mikel's performance in the Champions league that year will he fall among the top 3 Chelsea players in the 2012 UEFA champions league? Are you telling me he performed more than Drogba, Ramires and Mata that year?
Next point UEFA Europa League 2013?
First of all I don't think great players pride on Europa League it is a competition for clubs that failed to make it to top 3/4 as the case may be in their domestic league and compensation for top clubs that disappointed their fans and failed to make it to the round of 16 in the UEFA Champions league how will you feel as a fan if you see Messi and Christiano runing arnd in the Europa league? Why is Arsenal always celebrating each time they end up making it to the top 4 and escape playing the Europa League. Looking at the statistics again I didn't see anywhere Mikel's name came up even in the Most Fouls commited list which had Ramires.
AFCON 2013 (African Cup of Nations)
Let's go straight to the statistics for individual performances
Player of the Tournament - Jonathan Pitroipa
Tournament Top Scorer -Emmanuel Emenike
Fair Player of the Tournament - Victor Moses
Goal of the Tournament - Youssef Msakni
I won't recognise the fact that Mikel made the team of the tournament so was Ambrose,Moses,Emenike and Enyeama who holds the record for minutes kept with Clean Sheet if we are to go by AFCON 2013 then citizens of Burkina Faso own the right to protest the Award due to the fact that the best player of AFCON 2013 didn't even make it to the top 3 as well as an Unsung Hero that goes by the name of Onazi. Who does the a lot of Midfield dirty work but is underated. Mikel was not the best Super Eagles player at AFCON so that does not give him an Edge over Toure.
Now let's go back to club football which is the most played and that's where you have opportunity to display your talent as a result of many games played.
I can't remember the last time Mikel played 10 straight games for 90 minutes in 2013 or rather started 10 games straight. You can be the best and be sharing your playing time on the bench for coach that supports black players and loves work rate. Chelsea will do very well even if Mikel is not playing but you can't say that about Toure in Man-City he commands his position without rivalry let's face it if Chelsea is to sign Yaya Toure this January he will break into their first team right away and Mikel will still be on the bench infact there is no team in football now that will seat Yaya Toure on the bench. You can as well google clips of Toure and Mikel on the internet and I assure you majority of Mikel's clips will be clips of him passing the ball to his defence line. Mikel is good but Toure is better, he needs to step up his game as a matter of factthere was a time in soccer when an argument would surface between Messi and Mikel who is better but even a mad man now can never bring up that argument now cos Mikel has refused to up his game and has remain stagnant. Mikel didn't make the FIFA 23 man list of 2013 but Yaya made it. Both of them play in the Premiership but I don't if they are to make a list of best players in premiership now Mikel will come ahead of Yaya toure and now lemme quote a certain Djangocode in www.nairaland.com on his personal comparism of Yaya Toure and John Obi Mikel and I concur
Consistency - Yaya
Defence splitting passes -Yaya
Shots - Yaya
Goals - Yaya
Hold up Play - Yaya
DMF Role - Mikel
CMf, AMF - Yaya
Dribbles,Movement - Yaya
Aerial Threat - Yaya
Set Piece Threat - Yaya
Team Stat - Yaya = 90% contribution
Team Stat - Mikel = 35% contribution
How come people No Nigerian are saying Mikel deserves CAF African Best Player
Yaya is the best black midfielder in the world a Beast in the midfield.
The sad thing is if they continue with their present form Yaya Toure is going to win the CAF African Best Player of the Year 2014...let's stop celebrating mediocrity in Nigeria and it will make our nation great
