    The Tanzanian movie industry is fast-growing and said to be the second-largest in Africa after Nigeria. Our productions are shown throughout Africa through satellite channels.

    Our production model includes pairing and collaborating with Tanzanian Youth. Interns will work on a production team with individuals from all backgrounds and skill levels. Come ready to learn the innovative style of Tanzanian filmmaking and share what you know while working with great equipment!

    This volunteer internship program aims to assist Tanzania's young, talented film industry artists and professionals develop their skills. We have already created and further helped Tanzanian film teams to produce music videos, short documentaries, and full movies. In Tanzania, we have no proper education for film production, and our model is to get professional personnel and students from the Western world to perform work training for their Tanzanian counterparts.

    Our film program is our primary media tool to give visibility to community issues for the public in common in Tanzania.
