Filmmaking workshop as part of this year’s edition of AiF FilmArt has now opened applications for participation. This is a film incubator program for young and emerging filmmakers based in Ghana occupying production roles including; directing, producing, editing, cinematography, and sound design to apply.

This program is designed to foster cultural and experiential exchanges between West Africa (Ghana and Nigeria) and East Africa (Uganda) and birth new narratives that will contribute to the growth of African cinema.

The Accra Indie Filmfest is organizing this incubator program in partnership with Kyooto Media Group based in Uganda and Unique Motion Media Konsult based in Nigeria for this year’s edition. The screenwriting workshops in Uganda and Nigeria are currently ongoing.

AiF FilmArt is a flagship Pan-African film incubation program as part of the annual Accra Indie Filmfest (AiF) for young and emerging filmmakers already in the business of filmmaking who need supported opportunities to develop their craft.

This Accra Indie Filmfest, Kyooto Media Group, and Unique Motion Media Konsult partnership will give 100 underrepresented emerging screenwriters in both Nigeria and Uganda the opportunity to collaborate with young filmmaking teams in Ghana.

At the end of the program, two short films will be produced and premiered as part of the Accra Indie Filmfest 2023 to a live audience. These films would also be submitted to other international film festivals to increase the visibility of the participating screenwriters and filmmakers beyond Accra Indie Filmfest.

Accra Indie Filmfest (AiF) is an international short film festival in Ghana, with the dedication to creating more value for emerging filmmakers across the world through the production of short films.
