  GH FILM BOARD CAN SUPPORT INDUSTRY BUT THE BULK OF THE WORK MUST COEM FROM THE MOVIE PRODUCTION HOUSES. FOR STARTERS, WHERE IS THE FILM INDUSTYR IN GH? IS IT BASED IN KUMASI, ACCRA OR TAMALE? SECONDLY, WHERE R THE PREMIER FILM SCHOOLS IN GH LOCATED? THIRD, ARE THESE SCHOOLS TEACHING ASPIRING FILM DIRECTORS AND PRODUCERS THE BUSINESS SIDES OF THE INDUSTRY? IF U WANT TO PRODUDE N DIRECT UR OW FILM. U NEED SPONSORS AND PPL TO FUND UR IDEA. U MAY BE LUCKY IF U GET CASH FROM GOVT BUT THE BULK DEPENDS ON UR HUSTLE. U NEED TO APPEAL TO PPL, BANKS, WEALTHY PPL, CORPORATE ETC TO FUND UR PROJECT. MANY FILM STUDIOS HAVE PARTNERSHIPS WITH BANKS AND INVESTMENT COMPANIES. TEY ALSO MAKE MONEY BY ILLICITING PRODUCTS, CLOTHES, CARS, HOMES, PRODUCTS ETC UNTO THEIR MOTION PICTURES AND THYE MAKE MONEY BY INCLUDING THESE BRANDS IN THEIR FILM. IF AKROBETO DOES A MOVIE AND A SCENE INVOLVES A CR CHASE. HE WILL GO TO KANTANKA N USE HIS CAR AND GET MONEY FROM THE PUBLICITY. ALL THESE THINGS AR ENOT EVIDENT IN GH FILM CIRCLES. THERE IS NO PROFESSIONAL BUSINESS ETIQUETTE. I WEN TO FILM SCHOOL BUT DROPPED OUT. THATS WHY I KNOW ALL THIS. EVEN THE CLOTHES UR ACTORS WEAR ON SET, THE FOOD, EATER, BEER, ETC CAN ALL BE FUNDED. THE MUSIC SOUNDTRACK ETC...HOW MANY DIRECTORS IN GH KNOW HOW TO DO STORY BOARDS? OR GREEN SCREEN? MAKING A MOVIE IS NOT ABOUT JUST TAKING A CAMERA AND FILMING FOOLISHNESS. SO IF U DONT HAVE PROFESSIONAL SKILLS. U NEED TO GO TO SCHOOL N LEARN BCOS EVERYONE IE LEARNING. THOSE WITH THE SKILLS ARE NOT EVEN MAKING IT HOW MUCH MORE U WITH NO FILM SKILLS? IM MOVING TO GH SOON YO...

  Robert,what's did you smoke today show me and I want try some. You're blaming an independent country for your incapability to do things right?maame dokunu and her cronies are all fake people it wasn't quite long she denied even adding any film made in kumawood to an award ceremony,out of hate and jealousy Ghanaians film actors refused to portrait any hero who doesn't come from their tribe but would love to be a servants under Nigeria film.from the northern Ghana to the southern Ghana we have rich history,culture, heritage which need to be explore and art upon to the world,the sad news in it is that the so called ghallywood actors have chosen to reject our local films which portraits our natural character as nation but would dress like a local chief in village/ nigeria and even feel proud but expect Ghanaians to cherish such a nonsense,they prefer to worship under the feet of nigerians whereas our organizers would bring movie actors/musicians to Ghana and call it Ghana meet niager but at the end of the day the nigerians refuse to call Ghanaians to do the same so why do we continue to be fools Ghana why?
