Ghanaian filmmaker and director, Leila Djansi
The remarkable international filmmaker, Leila Djansi unveiled the hit formula for better development of Ghanaian film industry. She said industry should focus on priority and unity.
‘When we put effort on these two things: priority and unity, I think things will get much improved.’
She said the industry will only groom when the investors will be united and also make the right priorities. Further she added that she didn’t see light of hope because investors are currently divided.
She exposed that personal priorities are negatively affecting the showbiz industry. The people are thinking about the red carpets and image they want to project to the public so they can get a few likes on social media. That is not what cinematography is all about.
She added that cinematography is serious occupation just like doctor and solider. She mentioned that ‘who goes around it comes around.’ Her words are mentioned below:
‘Film-making is a business and you have to take it earnestly as a doctor going into surgery or a teacher going into the classroom or soldier going to war. That is how you treat your craft or approach the job of cinematography…you are putting in huge money and you expect huge money out.’
