‘Documentary is a fine art form demanding that the storyteller be adept at the tools of filmmaking, as well as be passionate, compelling and nuanced in visual narratives. We are pleased with the work many alumni of IREP workshops are doing already’
IT’s 12years since the IREPRESENT International Documentary Film Festival Lagos began and every year we have convened filmmaking and storytelling training for emerging filmmakers.
It is an important commitment we made to growing the documentary filmmaking culture in Nollywood.
Documentary is a fine art form demanding that the storyteller be adept at the tools of filmmaking, as well as be passionate, compelling and nuanced in visual narratives. We are pleased with the work many alumni of IREP workshops are doing already.
Huge thanks to our many facilitators over the years who have shared their knowledge and expertise pro bono.
This year we bring an exciting young filmmaker and storyteller whose work I admire. Ema Edosio-Deelen is an award-winning filmmaker whose work in fiction and non-fiction is everything excellent.
She will be teaching Basic Documentary Filmmaking at IREP2022. It’s a great opportunity for someone out there to get better and do better…and it is free. Just register at: www.irepfilmfestival.com
