I wrote a Film and it’s still showing on YouTube. This one is very special for me and you should get to see this beautiful film. https://youtu.be/HzM4YYLqo24?si=DAo6nbUYmqkyMTOy

Yesterday was a surreal moment for me and a recognizable landmark in my filmmaking journey. Many moments and memories mark my 2023 but getting into @ebonylifecreativeacademy was a stand out one. From the first day of class meeting @mrxavierighorodje till yesterday, it’s been nothing short of growth. I met amazing talents and I finally felt like I was where I belonged. It was an amazing ride from the first week when we had to come up with story ideas, the countless pitches at different levels, collaborating with other team members and the entire production process. I won the award for BEST SCRIPT yesterday and I will call this ‘The First of Many to Come’! …but beyond this, I’m grateful for the community, the friendships I made and the countless magic to come after. Thank you @ebonylifecreativeacademy , @lagosstategovt , @mrxavierighorodje , @_boladaniel and to everyone supporting this journey.

Two days ago, it was dad’s first posthumous birthday and somewhere between grief, gratitude and celebration… I showed up to the AMVCA in his outfit. Still a part of my story and still a big fan of this boy with bags of dreams. Cheers to the films, the fashion, the wins and to the dreamers, storytellers, and creatives brave enough to believe in their vision long before the world sees it too.

...this is more than a monologue. Inspired by true events. Written by @manuelzenyth I used to think Jos was the closest place to heaven in this country. The cold air, the way the mist sat on the hills in the morning. It felt like God was actually resting there. Now, that same place is bleeding. ... AGAIN! Do you know what the government said? (chuckles) NOTHING. Cold deliberate silence. I mean, there's an election to win, money to move, smiles to fake in front of cameras and ribbons to cut like everything is fine. So, let Jos bleed. They should be used to that. My soul is tired! Not the kind of tired sleep can fix, because the most heartbreaking part is not the killing anymore. It's how we adjust to things we should never get used to. It's how fast we move on. Trending by morning, hashtag by noon and forgotten by evening. Another headline, another statistics and another tally for the archives of people this country has failed. Yet, Nigeria just keeps looking for the next person to happen to. Do you know what it feels like to love a place that does nothing to protect you? To keep hoping, until it starts to feel like a mental illness? And the scariest part is every time you try to believe that maybe, just maybe things will get better... Another headline shows up like a warning for you not to get too positive... reminding you that today, it’s a stranger. Tomorrow, it might not be. A reminder that Nigeria has no respect for who it chooses to happen to. .... Shot and Edited by: @calidadstudios ...

Slices of March… On to the next! ✨

Life Lately ✨

One common opening hook online these days is “As a man….” Or “As a woman…” and then you see people theorizing Love and dropping think pieces. Love is not something you fit into a generalized template and Cats help you understand this. Much more than that, Cats possess a fine balance of what every relationship needs. Curiosity kills the cat but it might just save your relationship… but then, this is not an absolute take because Love isn’t exactly something you master.

A birthday, I’ve realized, isn’t merely a celebration of who I am now but also an acknowledgment of the anthology of people I’ve been. I’m grateful for the journey and every past version that brought me here. I like that I’m not done. That there are people I haven’t been yet. Voices I haven’t used. Braver versions I still get to choose from. Softer ones I’m learning not to dismiss. I like that future chapters haven’t decided their tone and there’s more to come. Happy Birthday, AYOMIDE 🎉 Cheers to 16 🥂
