For Africans and non Africans that may wish to produce a home video, documentary or a music Video, i may have to point out to you that shooting in Africa is quiet different from Hollywood. here in Africa, using Nigeria as a case study, Nolly wood has not been built yet. there are no studios where you walk in with a sketch of your locations and every thing is done. here, you must have to bear it in mind before conceiving your story. adding fictitious locations to your screenplay may be a problem later during the shooting.
if you are writing from Africa, you should know the locations that are obtainable here. we have overwhelming sites here and that is actually what we should be making use of. in most cases, if you are writing from outside Africa, you must consult us here to give you an insight of what we have here before you make your shooting script...
To make shooting easy for you, follow this steps
Write/Buy your screenplay story.......... Get the Crews..... Run the Costing..... Casting.....SCRIPT Conferencing....Shooting script......Search for Locations...Fix shooting Date........ACTION.
Most times, shooting in Africa is not as expensive as people imagine, more especially if you invite the right people to help you look at your script.
