Testimonial
I got enrolled at Bafot Studios Academy by my big sister, and as a teen I had the mindset of attending to pass time; but when I got to the studio, I saw a whole new world of digital photography that I hadn’t seen before and immediately I fell in love with so much passion. Little did I know that was going to be a big step into my career.
I got the best training under the mentorship of Mr. Oludare Onasanya in Photography, Videography & Video Editing. The skills, training and expertise were the foundation that shaped me into my new dawn of becoming a film maker.
Today I am a Film Director & Colorist with multiple projects on South Africa TV. All thanks to Bafot Studios Academy.
