Toes In Video Production Claimed

As far back as I can remember, I’ve loved film. I would say it was the first thing I ever really understood. Growing up in Nigeria, rushing home from school at the age of 7 to watch what I somehow understood were actors tell a story that I knew someone (let’s call them a director) had told them how to tell.

From there my love affair with stories started, I would lock myself in the toilet for hours with a book (was a busy household), whenever  there was a stage nearby I would want to get on it and I dreamt of the day when I would get to make something that could be shown on a TV.

Eventually at the age of 25, I had enough money to buy a computer capable of video editing, a Powerbook G4, beautiful machine. I started putting videos together, got better and one day someone says ‘We’d like to make a video, we’ll pay you?’. ‘YOU CAN GET PAID DOING THIS?’ was my incredulous reply, Then YouTube happened, and it didn’t take long before the immense marketing power of that became obvious Which led us to the world we have now where it is the second biggest search engine in the world (second only to Google, who own YouTube anyway).
