Tunde Kelani's cinema cut right into our political and socio-cultural malaise. Films like Saworo Ide, Koseegbe and Agogo Ewo asked serious questions and offered platforms for rational discourse and understanding. Brave

Writing an intense Afro-Western with Isaac, developed from a cacophony of ideas we'd been brooding on for 3 years now. Having a premise is just the start, 80% of our process is just discussing characters&where their head is per time and what they should be doing.

There is nothing wrong with making Popcorn films, poorly referred to as "commercial films". They require a fair amount of talent, strategy and a sprinkling of luck to make them over and over. It is also art. It should be taken more seriously

Film titles are key. The first audience contact point or in some cases, studio execs. In a crowded marketplace, titles must create memorability and pack the artistic -thematic-genre energy of the film. Underrated aspect of filmmaking.

I don't know a lot, but I teach a small screenwriting class every now and then. I find that students who had books growing up, watched better films and went to better Pry. schools immediately wrote better than sometimes more imaginative but averagely educated peers.

Reading texts, watching essays and loading up on podcasts are fine ways to acquire information and knowledge about the craft, but it can in itself become an aesthetic replacement for action. The final phase of education is received on the road; in the process of doing.
