Award-winning Ghanaian-American filmmaker Leila Djansi and Ghanaian film producer Ludwig Mawuli Agbezuhlor will host a networking mixer for film industry professionals on Sunday, September 14, at the Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park.<\/p>\n

The event, which primarily targets film crew members, is expected to create a platform for filmmakers to connect and promote high professional standards in filmmaking.<\/p>\n

Speaking on Hitz FM\u2019s\u00a0Daybreak Hitz<\/em>\u00a0with Kwame Dadzie and Doreen Avio, Leila explained that the initiative stemmed from a social media post she made on 29 August urging filmmakers to pay more attention to crew members who play crucial roles in production.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe first thing the Ghana film industry NEEDS\u2026 before anything else is well trained and efficient crew in all film departments. Post haste! The fact that you almost always have to fly more than 50% of this crew in is really sad. This is the edge South Africa has over Ghana when major films consider filming locations. We will discuss the bad roads and lack of standardized rates later.<\/p>\n

Make sure you have ALL of the following not just folks in the assistants section: (DM me with imdb link if you have the requisite experience.),\u201d she wrote.<\/p>\n

According to her, supporting the networking mixer aligns with the gap she identified in Ghana\u2019s film industry.<\/p>\n

Leila Djansi is renowned for films such as\u00a0Ties That Bind<\/em>,\u00a0Like Cotton Twines<\/em>,\u00a0Sinking Sand<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0I Sing of a Well<\/em>.<\/p>\n
