The ImoIFF Creatives & Film Festival is thrilled to announce the return of its highly anticipated Filmmakers Workshop for the 2025 edition, building on the resounding success of the 2024 program. This initiative stands as a testament to our unwavering commitment to nurturing emerging talent and fostering a vibrant filmmaking community within South East Nigeria.
During ImoIFF 2024, the workshop, a cornerstone of the festival’s mission, provided hands-on training to 25 aspiring filmmakers. Participants immersed themselves in intensive sessions covering the essential facets of filmmaking, including cinematography, sound design, acting, and production. The workshop’s impact was palpable, with attendees gaining invaluable practical skills and industry insights, empowering them to pursue their cinematic dreams.
The 2024 workshop’s success has fueled our ambition to expand this transformative program. For ImoIFF 2025, we are setting our sights higher, with a goal to train and empower 100 young filmmakers and women from the South East region. This ambitious undertaking aims to democratize filmmaking, providing access to essential skills and resources to those who may otherwise lack opportunities.
