Nollywood Veteran, Joke Silva is encouraging Nigerian filmmakers to learn from Tyler Perry and invest in studios.
According to a source, she recently shared her thoughts on Nollywood during a recent youth development forum tagged, ‘The Roundtable Lekki.’
According to the veteran actress, the industry needs studios and sound stages in order produce movies properly.
In her words, “We need to build our studios and sound stages, just like American filmmaker, Tyler Perry, has done. He built one of the biggest sound stages in the world. The thing with sound stages is that there are usually facades. I once shot a movie in France, but all the interior shots were taken in London, United Kingdom. All we did in France were the exterior shots to give the ambience of that country. Sound stages give one control. It allows one to make movies at one’s desired pace.”
