Ghanaian Gospel musician, Bright Nana Brown, known in showbiz circles as B Brown is set to unveil his debut film titled ‘Family’.
‘Family’ seeks to draw attention to the alarming deterioration of the family structure which is the foundation of every society.
Bright believes that, “we are headed for massive destruction if we don’t start revisiting and rebuilding the old and proper family manuals”.
He further explained that parents today are oblivious of the immediate emotional needs of their children as well as external influences on them and are mostly preoccupied with putting food on the table. “No wonder crime and social vices are rife these days”, he bemoaned.
Family is Bright’s first foray into propelling budding acting talents to the top after over a decade of traversing the entertainment industry.
The talented actor whose film credits extend from Ghana to across the globe focused more on unknown faces for this film due to his conscious long-term agenda of helping talents that have been hidden for lack of opportunities to be showcased and grow.
One of these “newbies” is the Writer and Director of this film Thompson Lordson (Tom Tom) who is still studying Film Directing At NAFTI. This is evidence of Bright’s passion to bring the unknown talents to the limelight.
“Working with people in their developing stages has always been my thing. It takes a lot of courage to be able to take some of these decisions because you need to take time to train and groom these people. Though it’s always a lot of work, I’m excited to be part of their growth process because its one of the major reasons I took on this challenge in the first place”, He said.
According to Mr. Brown, the premiere of his debut film, Family, was shifted to December from original date earlier in the year for strategic reasons. His excitement was palpable as he shared how the project was a labour and love and carries with all the investments, attachments and positive expectations one would have for a first child since this is his debut production.
‘This movie is just one of the mediums I want to use to correct this very disturbing situation in our current dispensation. We wouldn’t have all been here and sane if the family structures we grew on led us astray’, He added.
Family, will be premiered on the December 2, 2022 at the Trinity Baptist Church Opposite UPSA, East Legon at 7pm.
It was a night of intellect, eloquence and culture as contestants of the 2026 Miss Tourism Ghana took centre stage at the Coconut Grove Regency Hotel for the Debate and Culture Night last Saturday.
The event, which forms part of activities leading up to the grand finale, saw the ladies move beyond beauty to battle with ideas, facts and opinions on a topic critical to the tourism industry.
The contestants debated the topic: The Importance of Traditional and Digital Media on Promotion of Tourism.
For the debate, the contestants were grouped into two teams of four, each tasked with defending a side of the argument.
It was a fierce but respectful exchange. The team arguing for traditional media described it as the trust builder, emphasising its credibility, mass reach, and its power to tell in-depth, emotional stories through television documentaries, radio and newspaper features.
They argued that traditional media still shapes public opinion and influences policy decisions in the tourism sector.
On the other side, the proponents of digital media raised salient points about its unmatched advantages in the modern era.
They highlighted its global reach at low cost, its two-way interaction that allows tourists to share real experiences and reviews, its ability to target specific audiences, and its measurable results where clicks, views and bookings can be tracked.
After heated arguments and rebuttals, both teams arrived at a powerful consensus that drew applause from the audience.
They concluded that without traditional media, tourism promotion lacks credibility and depth, and without digital media, it lacks reach, engagement and sales.
The judges and patrons agreed that the debate underscored a crucial lesson for Ghana’s tourism drive: for a country blessed with rich cultural heritage, colourful festivals, historic forts and castles, diverse wildlife and pristine beaches, the winning formula lies in combining the storytelling power of traditional media with the viral power of digital media to attract both domestic and international tourists.
The night was not only about debate, as the contestants also dazzled in cultural wear, showcasing the beauty and diversity of Ghanaian culture.
