See What This Group Of Nigerian
Teenagers Are Doing With Their Smartphone’s That Will SHOCK You
A group of teenagers from Nigeria, Kaduna Precisely are on the
verge of making a major break into the Nigerian movie industry (Nollywood), and
they plan to do this with just their smartphones.
Following the massive social media attention which their short
films garnered, the teens who call themselves ‘The Critic‘ might indeed find
their way and take their place in scheme of things within Nollywood.
Using just a basic green screen, the student filmmakers have
been playing around with the sci-fi movie genre and are beginning to get the
attention of the world
With basic tools and just smartphones, these students come up
with rather surprising short films that have left a wow effect on many viewers.
These crew of
8, is said to have short their first film titled ‘Redemption’ from visual
effects skills which they learned through YouTube Tutorials.
According to
one of the young filmmakers, Godwin Josiah, their aim was not just to go viral,
but to show that kids within the north are doing something different.
Despite the
various challenges they face, The Critics have continued to excel in special
effects, making very commendable clips with a smashed mobile phone, a tripod
made from a broken microphone stand and other equipment made from improvisation
and thinking out of the box.
As often is
the reward of creativity and hard-work, films by The Critics caught the eye of
a well-known producer – who encouraged a fundraising campaign making them
almost $6,000 which is enough to buy them new equipment which will see to the
production of more qualitative films.
