A few words about your artistic career<\/h3>\n

My professional journey began in 2018 when I won a fully paid one-year film training scholarship with Multichoice Talent Factory. During graduation, the Academy awarded me a paid internship trip to Nollywood in Nigeria.<\/p>\n

How long have you been an artist?<\/h3>\n

My desire to tell stories began 6 years ago when I was studying for my bachelor's degree in information technology.<\/p>\n

Why did you apply for this scholarship? How will the scholarship support you?<\/h3>\n

I intend to make a documentary film about creative people in quarantine, to understand how they survive during the confinement caused by the virus in Uganda. <\/p>\n

What are your concrete artistic objectives after this residency?<\/h3>\n

To encourage filmmakers in difficulty and remind them that they are not forgotten and that they are taken care of;
\nReach out to the government and policy-makers in Uganda and urge them to consider providing relief to the creative sector, which they have long ignored.<\/p>\n
