I have read through the comments and I must say we aren't proud of our own work, I can't blame us for not loving it but we don't have to take the whole industry to Netflix. We have what it takes be there. There's some work in there from other countries with lesser quality than... https://twitter.com/CarolNdosi/status/1362470420142845954
... some of the work we have here. At so many levels the industry is facing a huge backwards push. Mtu unapewa $50,000 to produce about 60 episodes of a 25min series, please tell me how you will compete with a series given from US where an actor is given $25,000 per epsd??...
... If a producer will compromise and save enough to sustain their lives, it means a lot of workers will get low payments. We are sent out to a gun war with a spoon as a weapon, unless it's a scoop your rival day, we are good as dead. Then we come to the producers failure...
... Too many underdeveloped shows, too many. We literally have about two shows in Tanzania. The show that the guy is poor and gets the rich girl, and the show that the girl is poor and gets the rich guy then everything fills in between with all shows about romance, all...
... We have to study our craft and move it forward with time change and new audience to accommodate. People aren't blind and that's why they are wilding most times lol. Then I'll proceed to the audience now, the audience will support a project massively as long as it's free...
... The moment it's on a paying platform they wasn't the next free thing. We just wanna use flashdisks to go get movies at a shop for TZS 500 a movie and 2,000 a whole series season. We want amazing quality and we can't contribute on the growth....
... Na sasa Carol hapa utasema kuhusu @netflix , watakuja hapa waseme hatujafikia viwango, wanaziba hadi nafasi zetu wenyewe kukua. Wana-consume content ambazo wenzao wamechangiana kwa nguvu, wameanzisha hadi gofundme za movie. Natoka hapo nakuja kwa actors sasa...
... A lot of actors kwetu ni wazembeeeee, they don't practice top perfect their act na wale ambao wanajua wanakuwa ignorant after succeeding hence deteriorating. mwisho wa siku unakuta actor anaigiza hivyo hivyo movie kama 40, tena hata na nywele hiyo hiyo...
... With all due respect we all contribute to letting ourselves down. We don't need to have a whole nation in there, we can just choose one of us to represent us and we fully back and support them to come back with the win and open doors for us....
...Wafanyakazi Netflix are mostly Nigerians and South Africans. Head of African content kwa miaka kama mitatu sasa ni mkenya but Kenyan content ndo kwanza zimeanza kuingia sasahivi. Sasa tujiulize kama tunataka kuwa kwenye map au tuendelee kupiga kelele za hatuwezi.
