About the Masterclass

Learn the Process. Build Your Voice. Tell Your Story.

This masterclass is for filmmakers who want to create bold, honest stories rooted in their own truth.
As a filmmaker trained in both film school and real-world experience, I’ve learned that storytelling is not just about technique — it’s about perspective.
Every film I’ve made — Kasala!, Otiti, When Nigeria Happens — started with a question I couldn’t ignore, a story I needed to tell.
This class is not about chasing trends or formulas.
It’s about helping you find your voice — and using your skills, your environment, and your experiences to create films that connect deeply with audiences.

Masterclass Different

This is not a technical class filled with complicated jargon. This is a filmmaker’s survival guide. It’s a course built from experience — from making films in Lagos with little resources but big vision.

It’s honest.
It’s practical.
It’s designed to help you move from “I have an idea” to “I made a film.”

  • No gimmicks. No shortcuts. Just the real work of storytelling.

  • Your story is your power.
    The world doesn’t need another copy — it needs you.
