Mambo ya ZIFF Mwaka Huu!

Zanzibar International Film Festival/Tamasha la Nchi za Jahazi kwa muda mrefu sasa limekua likitoa nafasi za mafunzo ya muda mfupi (Training Workshops) kwa wadau wa filamu nchini na pia kutoa nafasi kwa soko la filamu la Africa mashariki kwa ulimwengu.

Ikiwa sasa tuko katika Tamasha la 12 la nchi za majahazi, ZIFF imeendelea kunadi na kukuza soko hili la filamu, ZIFF inatambua mahitaji ya kiwanda kizima cha filamu ili kikue na kufikia malengo tuyatakayo. Lakini kumekuwa na mwamko mdogo sana kwa wadau ama washiriki wa fani hii, ukiangalia kiwanda hichi hakina watu wenye ujuzi upasao (Professionalism) na ndio maana kimekua kikizalisha ilimradi kazi tena zisizo na ubora.

Mwaka huu tena ZIFF inatoa nafasi ya mafunzo ya muda mfupi kwa wadau na washiriki wa soko/kiwanda cha filamu. Tunaomba watu wajitokeze kutuma maombi yao ili kuweza kushiriki. Pia tunaomba wadau/washiriki wasisite kuuliza maswali pale wapohisi hawajaelewa au panawatatiza.

Naambatanisha Tangazo la Warsha za Mafunzo ya muda mfupi ili kuwajulisha wadau/washiriki nini kinaendelea katika ZIFF 2009 na pia kuwaomba washiriki.

Nashukuru kwa vyombo vya habari kwa kuwa mstari wa mble kuzungumzia soko na kiwanda cha filamu kwa upana lakini tukumbuke bila elimu kiwanda hichi kitakufa.
