Comedian and filmmaker shares his thoughts on movie production challenges and calls for higher standards in the comedy industry.
Popular comedian, actor, and filmmaker Basketmouth has offered his perspective on the Nigerian movie industry, emphasizing the critical need for proper budgeting to ensure the production of high-quality films. In a recent interview, the entertainer reflected on the consequences of mismanaging funds and how it can negatively impact a project.
Basketmouth shared a personal story about securing 300 million Naira for a movie project within just 24 hours, successfully pulling off the task. He used this experience to highlight the importance of having adequate resources to produce films that meet industry standards.
The comedian also spoke on the value of collaboration between veteran and younger filmmakers, advocating for mutual learning. He believes that both generations bring unique perspectives and skills to the table, and working together can elevate the industry.
Basketmouth didn’t shy away from critiquing certain practices in the comedy world, particularly the act of soliciting funds from the audience during performances. He described this as dishonorable and encouraged his colleagues to focus on delivering exceptional comedy routines rather than relying on donations.
His insights reflect a desire to see both the film and comedy industries in Nigeria operate at higher professional standards, driven by quality and integrity.
