IN MY CITY: ACCRA
SELF OR SOMEONE JUST STARTING OUT IN THIS PROFESSION?
YA:
Always be proactive and resourceful. In the fast-paced world of film production, time is of
the essence, and finding the perfect locations can be challenging. Instead of waiting for leads
to come to you, actively seek out potential locations by networking, researching and exploring
different areas. Be resourceful by thinking outside the box and considering unconventional
options that may fit the vision of the project.
