Cameroon Mushroom Awarding, good for CFI???

I know the question is boiling in the minds of a lot of fans, if the Cameroon Film Industry is ripe enough for the spring of "mushroom awarding". The answer to this question is yes. CFI is ready to embrace as many award host as the days of a month. The spring of mushroom awarding started in 2012 which signals a rapid growth of the Cameroon Film Industry.

The Cameroon Film Industry/entertainment industry has so far hosted the following awards;

Ecrans Noir
The Dream Africa Movie Awards (DAMA)
The Cameroon Entertainment Awards (CEA)
The Cam Movies Merit Awards (CMMA)
Elegance 237 or Cameroon Diaspora Awards (CDA)

With the exception of Ecran Noir, The rest of the Award emerged in 2012 alone though the Dama was however at it's second edition.

In 2013,  the Cameroon Film Industry will be blessed with even more Awards. Early 2013 has seen the birth of the Cameroonian Movie Awards (CMA), which is said to be holding this July 2013 at Azam Hotel in Bamenda. 2013 has also seen the birth of the Cameroon Academy Awards or Sonnah Awards which is going to be holding at the Luxurious Hilton Hotel in Yaounde this December 2013. For those in-front and behind the Camera, this is good news.  A summary of Awards in 2013;


1. Ecrans Noir (??)

2. The Dream Africa Movie Awards (DAMA) possibly November 2013

3. The Cameroon Entertainment Awards (CEA) possibly August 2013

In total, the Cameroon Film Industry (CFI) will be hosting 8 (Eight) Awards this Year 2013. It is rumored that there may be more award coming before mid 2013.

Somebody shout Amen and Alleloya, this is wonderful growth we are talking about. We should all look at this in a positive light and appreciate the fact that some investment and appreciation is befalling our Film Industry.

More on this story will be coming as we move on.

Nchifor Valery & Others representing CFI in Burkina Faso

The New Year wish for most Film Makers from Cameroon this 2013 was to see the Cameroon Film Industry gain international recognition. There is all evidence to suggest that this 2013 dream is coming true. Cameroonian Zafaa Award wining and Cam Movies Merit Award winning actor Nchifor Valery and a host of other film makers are at the FESPACO Film Festival taking place in Burkina Faso. Nchifor Valery is said to be representing the award winning movie "OBSESSION" where he played lead role, produced and directed by all time editor "Achille Brice of Binam Studio. We also learned that the director of the International Award winning movie NINAH'S DOWRY, Victor Viyuh also traveled from the United States and currently in Burkina Faso.  Apart from the two films mentioned above, there are other films from Cameroon at the festival. This comes after Cameroonian Award wining producer Agbor Gilbert also returned from Turkey attending another prestigious film festival.  It should be noted that the trip, hotel and other travel expenses are proudly covered by the Cameroon Ministry of Culture.

The movies "Supplication", "On the Brim", and other great Cameroonian movies are also cued for ZAFAA 2013 in London.

2013 is a year of possibility for the Cameroon Film Industry.

Controversy: CFI General Assembly - Today 16 February 2013

The CFI Controversy

Last month, the public was hinted about the Cameroon Film Industry (CFI) general assembly meeting. This meeting is a long awaited meeting and the general  public, film makers and fans of CFI are anxiously waiting for the outcome of this meeting, which might determine the future of Collywood. Speaking to some of the key organisers of this meeting yesterday, it was confirmed that the meeting will hold today at HOTEL RESIDENCE CARLOS in MUEA-BUEA. We also learned that the date was changed in Bamenda after the burial of one of Cameroon's top actress (RIP). However, despite the controversial information, we were told that the CFI general assembly will hold, despite the fact that it will not favor every stakeholder in the industry. The interim  president of CFI Waa Musi could not be reached for comments. However, the interim SG Chatoh Colins will be briefing Cam Movies during the course of the day. We hope things are resolved and that we don't end up with a more divided CFI.  We were also hinted that AGE Production CEO, Agbor Gilbert Ebot flew back to Cameroon from the USA after the shooting of PINK POISON RELOADED to attend this meeting.  We will update the public about this meeting during the course of the day.
