Actor and producer, Eddie Nartey, has suggested that joint productions from renowned filmmakers could go a long way to bring Ghana’s wobbly movie industry back on its feet.
Eddie Nartey believes such a teamwork could resuscitate the silver screen sector which many see as gasping for breath.
In an interview with Graphic Showbiz, Eddie Nartey said movie makers such as Shirley Frimpong-Manso of Sparrow Productions and Abdul Salam Mumin of Venus Films; Leila Djansi of Turning Point Pictures and Yvonne Nelson’s YN Productions; Samuel Nyamekye of Miracle Films and Kofi Asamoah’s Kofas Production could collaborate on a production and with support from investors, Ghana’s movie industry would come back to life.
“When these production houses come together to work and with the support of individuals and corporate institutions, I believe strongly our movies will bounce back in no time. There is a saying that two heads are better than one so if we have two or more of our great producers joining forces, nothing but the best will be the end results.”
“Such joint projects will see the selection of the best actors, we will have the best scripts as well as best editing, among others. Individual producers doing their own thing is not helping our current situation. If we move together to government for help, they will listen to us.”
“All what we want to revive the industry cannot be done without funding so this is when the government and individuals should come in to help”, he stated.
Also, Eddie Nartey noted that consistency was a problem the industry needs to deal with, if we wanted our movie industry to be vibrant again.
“I believe the Nigerians are doing well because they are consistent with their movies. They have a lot of movie producers who are releasing new movies with different actors. It gives different varieties to always choose from. We are not doing so well when it comes to that.
“Apart from Shirley Frimpong-Manso, who is consistent with coming out with movies and series, not much can be said of the others. I will urge that we beef up on that aspect because that is when we will attract support from investors”, he added.
Currently, Eddie Nartey and his E N Academy is helping to train up-and-coming actors.
