INTERNET, BUSINESS and AFRICA

Back again, this time the issue at hand is the INTERNET,BUSINESS and AFRICA. If we realize the internet is becoming a common phenomenon on in Africa, especially amongst the youths and those who are dynamic. Looking at business in Africa which seems to be on the rise due to the demand for raw materials, Africa compared to other continents is not yet at its optimum point in most of its countries. Cameroon's per-capita GDP ( Purchasing power parity ) was estimated as US$2,300 in 2008, one of the ten highest in sub-Saharan Africa .

Some time back I came into contact with a correspondent from Phoenix East Aviati...

Africa in Movies

In Africa everyone enjoys a good movie but what does it take to make a good movie. 1. The Script 2. The Location 3. The Director 4. Other Crew Members 5. Equipment 6. Skill THE SCRIPT:  In African movies we have a lot of good scripts and writers as well but the movies are usually not to standard. THE LOCATION: Our locations for movies are classified exotic but yet we fail to deliver. THE DIRECTOR: The Director is usually the pivot of a good movie he usually enforces the vision of the movie and should lead the movie towards the consumers view point. We have directors but can only boast of a few trained and experience Directors. OTHER CREW MEMBERS: This consist of  Production and Post Production players. The equipment operators, cast  etc are all important to the success of a movie. EQUIPMENT: This is a very vital part for the quality of a movie. A good movie has just the right equipment such as: cameras, lighting, cranes, camera stabilizers, dollies etc. T...
