Yibain Emile-Aime Chah aka Ancestor, Anurin Nwunenbom and Eka Christi are among facilitators training some 34 Tanzanian youths at a film making workshop currently going on in Zanzibar. The two-week workshop on Guerilla Indie Film Building is jointly organized by BinAM Studios (Achille Brice) and the Zanzibits Center for Film and Multimedia. “This idea is curled from Core Unit Group filmmaking technique developed over a period of seven years by members of this synergy,” Anurin told TIPTOPSTARS Editor on the line to Zanzibar Monday. At press time, Eka Christi and compatriot Anurin had just finished facilitating the general introduction to the Guerilla Indie Film ideology and acting. The workshop rounds off on April 30. TIPTOPSTARS will be talking to the Cameroonian facilitators who incidentally are some of the most seasoned and achieving contemporary film makers in Cameroon. The three were part of the Ninah’s Dowry project which has undoubtedly turned out to be Cameroon’s film ambassador at least for now. What an honour for Cameroon!

From Zanzibar, Cameroonian artists head to AMAA ceremony

STOP PRESS: It’s a very tight schedule for Anurin Nwunenbom and Eka Christy. Both are en route to Yenagoa, capital of the oil-rich Bayelsa State in Nigeria to attend the 9^th edition of the Africa Movie Academy Awards AMAA. They are checking out of another assignment in Tanzania to honour their nominee status at AMAA. Ninah’ Dowry, the movie in which Anurin and Eka starred secured seven nominations at this year’s AMAA (Best Film, fest achievement in a Screen Play, Best actor in a lead role - Anurin Nwunembom, best actress in lead role - Bufung Seikeh Vivian, best supporting actress - Eka Christi, bestcChild actor - Bodi Rolland Tamfu and best achievement in make-up - Willston Muluh).
