Firm trains youths on directing, scripting, cinematography, editing
EDO State Government, through its skills development agency, Edojobs, has trained and graduated 26 youths on movie production and other related vocational skills.
The five- day intensive training, aimed at creating a pool of skilled talents for job opportunities in the creative industry, was organised in partnership with a French company, LAFAAAC La Femis.
Youths were trained in digital cinematography, scripting and directing, production management, still photography, editing and sound design and production, among others.
Addressing journalists shortly after the closing ceremony of the programme, the Managing Director of Edojobs, Mrs. Ukinebo Dare, said the programme was a part of efforts to equip youths in the state with the right skills to thrive in the creative industry.
She said: “While they were on this training, they were able to shoot three short clips that they can use to advertise themselves and their skills. We are looking forward to hearing amazing new things from these Edojobbers.
