Peterwizzy:
yeah where do they sell these cameras in Nigeria ??

In Lagos;
You can get them at any major market. From Agege dopemu to Alaba to Lawanson Chitta to ikorodu to computer village. Or shop online from anywhere in Nigeria.

But the camera headquarters in Nigeria is at Lagos Island (Isale Agbede street/Aroloya street) where you can get almost anything including accessories at the cheapest possible price.

Happy VAL.
Nigerian army.
One love!

Harakiri is like honour killing

A kind of suicide that Japanese ?men commit by slicing a sword thru their ? bellies...
To atone for any blight on their family (unsure of personal now) honour
I do not remeber exactly sha , and I am resentful of the internet so will not check
I read this from before Google, when encyclopaediae rocked my word
When I was a knowledge goddess

Now Google has made people aware of things and stolen my thunder!

I'm in your shoes on this one, knowledge goddess.

Google stole my Oracle overnight.

SOME.

VillageBoi:
Totally understand you Prof, this 'mess' really is one of the reasons I hardly every post things on NL anymore. Apologies for what has gone on so far.

My oga na so jare..
No wahala...

@lechiffre, I admire your level of understanding and I respect your views and opinions. Apparently we share similar concerns on this issue.
Let us hope for the best anyway.
...cheers.

Wow... I actually watched this? ...for six minutes...!?

My sister, I say nice job. But that is the only nice part.
Though I forgive you for everything else.

Did you D.O.P this short?
At about 1:57 in your video, you shot against the light and the facial expression of your characters got lost.

Also at 4:something I could hear the director/camera man's voice.

The story is too macaroni...

The D.O.P forgot the importance of camera shots and their significance too.

Besides, this is NOT a silent short at all. The screams and mumblings marred it.

The ambient sound and voiceless dialogue should've not been there.
It should have been scored and replaced by sound effects.


The transitions remind me of those Nigerian tv dramas we used to watch on NTA as far back as '89, '90. I think it's that nostalgic feeling that kept me going.

I have been fighting the urge to comment on this thread but I cannot withstand it anymore.

I am on a resolution to never reply "people who don't know better" but I'm seeing incredibly shitty posts by mrmagoo, lechiffre and co.

Please guys if na play... stop am.

First this is not the main critic thread for invasion 1897...this is a Q&A session...for rubbinMinds. I'm pretty sure a pure criticism of this movie will be even less merciful.

Second, a review is only a person's personal opinion. It is not worth arguing over. If you don't like it then write your own.

Then we should know that the importance of criticisms in any profession cannot be overemphasized. In Arts, in Literature... the poets... Even a PhD thesis has to be defended before a panel of jurors. As a moviemaker your first critic is your audience. (just like in the beverage industry where your last and ultimate critic for your product is the final consumer.... no matter how many ISO/NIS certs. you've got.)
The AUDIENCE has the right to criticize a movie and NO they are not obliged to make their own movies due to that. Atleast you see Audience ratings on international movie sites.


In hollywood, indie filmmakers are usually on their toes knowing that various critics (professional, arm.chair, audience, etc) are at their backs... watching. That is how they encourage professionalism and creativity.


shout out to Lanre Tyson.!

I have never heard of any of these movies....

TochiPhotos:
Hope they are based in the US? .

I don't know where they are based. Those are the names that first struck my mind. I was hoping my recommendations will at least make recommendations.

TochiPhotos:
Hi guys, please I need urgent help. We want to raise funds for someone on the project and need to setup a gofundme or indie gogo account to enable our followers contribute. To that effect, I'm looking for a trusted nairalander based in the US that would provide his US bank account and PayPal and handle the funds for us. Lots of people have sent me DMs on Instagram suggesting the need for the funding accounts and volunteering to help but I need someone from nairaland, someone we can trust and hold accountable. Please help recommend someone or volunteer if you can do it for us. Thanks and God bless you.
Ujsizzle can you help me tag people that you think might want to help? Please.

...great idea.!
