Village to Village Marketing Campaign

The Cam Movies Marketing and Promotion Strategy is almost taking shape, Cam Movies have secure high definition projectors for local Cinema, aimed at broadcasting Cameroon movies from the biggest cities to the smallest villages in Cameroon. Once our movies gain the attention of the layman then we are now talking of a  solid industry. Our movies lack the audience which is the foundation of film making. They say charity begins at home, so let us convince our audience and gain their admiration. Bellow is a screen view of how the projection will look like during our projection tours starting in November 2012.

We will project your movie in all village town halls like this view for DECODED (Image not clear because of camera flash light of the screen)

With All Stars

WHO IS ALENNE MENGET?

                                         
                                      Meet Cameroonian Celebrity - ALENNE MENGET

Talking or writing about Film Makers in Cameroon without making mention of ALENNE MENGET is an incomplete statement that needs to be revised by the writer. This Multi-talented Douala based Film maker is a retired Journalist and TV host. Besides film making, Alenne is a singer and comedian. He is the founder and CEO of ATS Production with Head office in Akwa Douala. Alenne Menget started film making in Cameroon at a crucial time when there was no anglophone film maker in Cameroon. His debut in the Cameroon Film Industry can only be compared with the likes of Foh Ebennezar the pioneer Cameroon producer of "Sweetest Bitterness shot on location in UB in the early 2000s.  Alenne Menget is the host of "GOOD MORNING AFRICA" on AFRICAN MAGIC in Cameroon. Alenne's flexibility and creativity can never be under estimated. His recent comedy film titled "Return to Batibo" is a master piece of artistic creation. Alenne have worked on several projects with NOLLYWOOD big names such as JIM IKE, "2Fanja" and more. He has produced over 30 films widely watched around the world. Alenne aims at fighting social ills through films and documentary films. His documentary film titled "Cyber Crime" is a good example.  If hailing this Film guru is a sin then Cam Movies is a sinner. To discover this film maker, just Google his name or better still search his Films on YOU TUBE.

Do we really have a Cameroon Film Industry (CFI)?

We keep making noise about the Cameroon film industry and keep blaming the creation of many "Woods" but do we have a structure called CFI?

Cam Movies learned that since 2009, there has been an interim body in Cameroon called CFI with Waa Musi as interim president and Colins Chatoh as Sec. General. But ever since this structure was created, it has never been able to elect its leadership.

Why is the interim structure so dormant?
When we visited a facebook page called CFI, we never found any resourceful information posted by the interim executive. We learned that CFI has only been able to hold several regional and national conventions which ends up in accusations and gossips.

How does the CFI generate its income?
We learned that CFI taxed actors, actresses, producers, directors etc, to register with a minimum registration fee of 10,000cfa. We are not sure if this is effective and realistic.

What is the money used for?
We can not tell in all truthfulness or confidence, what the structure has so far done with the money raised. However, we learned that part of the money is used to organised these conventions.

Is the CFI made of both home based and Diaspora Film Makers?
No, when we spoke to some big film producers in the diaspora, Cam Movies learned that some of them are not even aware of the existence of CFI.

Cam Movies Recommendation to the Interim Exco of CFI
For us to achieve unity, credibility, and quality in film making, film makers both in Cameroon and in the diaspora needs to be represented in CFI. CFI have to form a solid structure with clear leadership and defined functions. The leadership needs to be made up of accountable and trustworthy Cameroonians who wish the best for the CFI. After this structure is formed, diaspora film makers have to pay in their yearly contributions in all confidence. No films from the diaspora will circulate without the film maker paying the yearly dues.  Finally the leadership have to draw up achievable goals and ensure it is accomplished by the end of the year.

Thanks,
