The Minister of Tourism, Arts and Culture, Dr Ibrahim Mohammed Awal is the Special Guest for the third edition of Graphic Showbiz Forum scheduled to take place at the MultiChoice Ghana head office in Accra at 4pm today.

The forum, themed: “Future of Ghana Movie Industry, Bright or Bleak”, is in partnership with MultiChoice Ghana and will see stakeholders in the Ghana movie industry deliberate on pertinent issues bothering the sector and the way forward.

The main speakers for the forum include George Bosompim, a lecturer at National Film and Television Institute (NAFTI) and Public Relations Officer of The Ghana Academy of Film and Television Arts (GAFTA), and Peter Sedufia, a film director and CEO of Oldfilm Productions.

The others are Ivan Quashigah, Film Producer and CEO of Farm House Productions, Prince David Osei, an actor, and Afua Kissi-Nyame, Head of Marketing, MultiChoice Ghana.

The event will be moderated by Media and Communications Consultant, Francis Doku.

According to the Editor of Graphic Showbiz, Ms Adwoa Serwaa Bonsu, film is a powerful medium that evokes emotions, shapes ideas and potentially affects attitudes and behaviour.

“So whether our film industry here blooms or withers should be of concern to us all. That’s why through our forum, we are bringing together a knowledgeable panel who understand the elements of filmmaking to figure out the current direction of our movie sector.

The forum is the third in the series by Graphic Showbiz after the maiden event in 2020, themed: “Moving from Promises to Action, A Discussion Of Party Manifestos On the Creative Industry.”
