some more news...

Recently met up with Cilia Sawadogo at the Tricycle, London.


She was giving a workshop and showcasing her film. It was great catching up with Cilia who has been busy travelling to Ghana, and France. It was also a brilliant opportunity to meet other practicing artists. filmmakers and animators. Victor Opeyokun, animator of animated film "Rooted", which has been shown in Europe. He has given workshops at Anime Caribe, you can read more at

I look forward to hearing from Victor about any African animation news...
