Moments in time and the people who made it all worth it! 🫶🏾💫
I remember getting a call from Jen on a regular day in 2024, “Sewa, how would you like to work on a film?” (probably not her exact words 😄).
After she explained the project, she asked if I had any questions.
My response: “Why me?? Why did you think of me?”
Jen, a little surprised by my question answers, “We saw the work you did on…project, and you were the first person who came to mind while building the team that we know would be “on it for the role”.” (again, paraphrasing-it’s been over a year 😄).
Colossians 3:23 - anyone who knows me knows how much of myself I pour into everything I do. You never lose when you do things from the heart.
Who would have thought that a project I worked on 3 years ago would lead me to become the Art Department Coordinator on such an incredible film 2 years later? A film that went on to become the first Nigerian film to premiere at Cannes, win an award and receive so many recognitions.
I am deeply grateful to have been on set with such amazing people day in and day out. That in itself was the greatest gift, being a part of such a beautiful story ❤️.
Thank you Art Department family!
