A Storytelling Initiative working with independent creatives across the African continent to contribute respectful and relatable visual stories from the continent. We work to take back and own our narrative by collaborating with creatives in their countries or regions. As a team of African creatives, we aim to challenge the long held stereotypes about our people - one image at a time. Because we are from the communities we photograph, our understanding of the cultures and the people reflects in the stories we create. We work with organisations and companies to create visually striking and dignifying stories. Just reach out to us with a story, location and timeline, and we will take care of everything else. We advocate for fair working conditions and are bridging the gap between local talent on the ground and our International clients and this connection results in intimate, dignified storytelling.

I am an award-winning Kenyan filmmaker based in Kampala, Uganda. 12 years ago, I started my career as a TV producer at a local television station. After experimenting with a variety of genres in my 5-year tenure, I began to develop a fondness for documentaries. After my stint on television, I started working as a freelance producer where I collaborated with other filmmakers as a cinematographer and video editor. Working as a freelancer presented a sense of creative freedom. The red-tapes associated with television studios were eliminated. I had a chance to “do what I wanted”. This freedom allowed me to experiment more as I perfected my craft and delved further into the technicalities of production with the aid of online resources and other filmmakers in the trade. 7 years ago, I co-founded a start-up video production house in Kampala known as Framez and Wavez. My vision is to work with other Ugandan and African filmmakers in creating and curating multimedia content that will help shape Uganda and the East Africa region by telling inspiring stories that steer clear of the “dark-continent” narrative that has become commonplace whenever Africa is under the spotlight. I hope to preserve the African culture, stories, and resilience through these multimedia productions that will be kept for posterity.
