Actor/Film & Stage Play Director, Fiifi Coleman has highlighted some reasons which have contributed to the collapse of the movie industry in Ghana.
Speaking in an interview on Onua Showbiz with Naana Kwame Gyan, Fiifi Coleman explained that the adoption of some foreign cultures and the inability to tell genuine African stories in movies have contributed to the decline of the industry.
He said the influx of producers, screenwriters, cameramen have overshadowed the production of quality content. "A time came people realized that shooting movies was becoming profitable so everybody became a cameraman, everybody became a soundman and they were doing that until they messed up the industry.
So, there were so many round pegs in square holes. "And the storytelling became copy-copy such that some foreign cultures were influencing us. "The education that we needed at the time was okay but everybody came in and wanted to do something which messed up the whole industry," he said.
