Download or read book African Video Film Today written by Foluke Ogunleye and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2003 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book considers the current state and status of the video film in different parts of Africa: Nigeria, Ghana, Lesotho, and Congo Kinshasa. It addresses technological, ethical and gender considerations, and issues of language and ethnicity, suggesting in the concluding chapters that the video film in Africa has become an art form that crosses borders, and an important means of communication within the continent. The editor thus argues it must be treated seriously as an art form and cultural industry in its own right, and as worthy of the scholarship such that this volume is conceived to encourage.
