November wey go sweet na from October you go sabi.
I once said I wasn’t talking about my upcoming series enough, especially with so many things going on at the same time and my convocation being just a week away.
Still… With the release date now so close, everyone will definitely be hearing more of The Hitman soon enough.
For now, here’s the teaser. Trailer soon!🔥
Please keep resharing to meet the right people.
The Hitman, my first ever series, is coming SOON!🥷🖤
This is so annoying!😭
How aren’t we seeing through this?
So here’s the trick: the algorithm of any social media platform pushes a content that seems to attract more external viewers.
Platforms like YouTube, for instance, clearly records when a video is watched particularly through an external source via its link. However, platforms like Instagram and X too, from the look of things, counts the actual act of copying the link of a post as a sign of interest in the post and so it will keep pushing the post to more viewers.
In the case of GIF, holding down on the GIF already makes room to copy the post and pasting it on WhatsApp will only share the post. Clicking it brings you back to X which will only send signals to the algorithm that the post is valid and keep pushing the post!
Chai!😭🤌

~ I have a belief when it comes to the work we do as creatives.
As a filmmaker, when you make a film with your friends or happy people, it shows! It really does show in the outcome of the film.
You can tell happy people came together to make FIVE FIGURINES. People who understood the assignment and were happy to be there.
Again, create art with happy people. 🧡
I strongly disagree.
One does not need an exorbitant budget for a good plot. That’s the gap that Nollywood needs to fill.
Spending all the money on aesthetics and marketing without a good story will always still fall short.
I feel this tweet will only discourage someone with potential who takes the advice of “just starting with what one has.”
As an emerging filmmaker with no source of finance but my personal income, I can tell for a fact that I’ve been able to tell good stories despite my almost zero budget.
Yes, you may have poor image quality from substandard equipment, mid location choices, chapped costumes and makeup effect, poor vfx and sfx and distorted sound qualities.
But you can still tell a story that isn’t a low budget story even in a low budget movie. So yeah, not “everything.”
Nothing beats impeccable storytelling!

Filmmakers need to stop shying away from admitting that validation matters. There’s nothing wrong with seeking recognition for your work. Pretending otherwise is dishonest.
Chale! 😂

Gm gm, mutuals ❣️
Every morning, we get to make a choice: what we feed our minds, what we chase, and what we give our energy to.
Be intentional today, don't trade your peace, values, or purpose for temporary gains.
Your soul deserves a good investment too
Have a productive Wednesday. 🤍

One thing I'm beginning to understand about building a brand:
You don't just need to be good at what you do.
People need to see it
People need to understand it
And most importantly, people need to trust you enough to pay for it... This actually takes time but;
"Slow progress and intentional growth"
What's one thing you're intentionally improving in your business or personal brand?
We’re almost halfway into The Hitman journey!
Episode 1 ✅
Episode 2 ✅
Episode 3 ✅
Four more episodes to go!
What can I say about the remaining episodes to come? Just relax. You’re about to experience PEAK STORYTELLING. This “Perfect Writer” name yeah, I go prove myself my leaders!🫵🤝
Thank you for staying LOCKED IN 🔐 so far!
MARK YOUR CALENDARS AND ANTICIPATE 🥂🔥

“Whenever we’re having issues, I’m always the one that’s coming back to you…”
The moment he started with those lines, na once everywhere first blur because to a great extent, I understand what’s going on here so bad that I’ve had this conversation before over and over in the exact same scenario.
The Adedamola guy has a good heart but a difficulty in containing his feelings and so in expressing himself, he starts falling apart because of the hurt he feels.
His so-called friend is the typical person that thinks being calm in a conversation like this makes you right and reasonable when in reality you are just an entitled ingrate.
If I were to advise Adedamola, it won’t be so hard:
“You really loved your friend and you can’t be hard on yourself for doing that. It’s too bad to announce that all those sacrifice you made was like pouring water into a basket. This is a hopeless situation and you don’t even have a friend in this person. You’re always coming back because you’re in a parasitic relationship. You want to be loved back but he no send you. So run and never look back. It will take nothing from him. And take everything from you but you will heal and find someone deserving of you.”
This applies to everyone else in such relationships. I couldn’t even watch this clip twice for the sake of my sanity.
