Everyone sees the actors. Nobody really talks about all the pieces that make the film come together, and opportunities to get paid from being behind the scenes 🎬
Tomorrow we're Breaking Bread with Thobelani Faku, a sought-after 1st Assistant Director who's worked on productions for KFC, Nike, MTN, Nedbank, Mercedes and literally hundreds more. to film productions such as Isono, The Legacy and more. He started as a tour guide. Now he's one of the most in-demand behind-the-scenes operators in the SA film industry.

We're breaking down the invisible money in film β€” the roles, the rates, and the real path in.

At AMPD Studios, we've always believed that the right connection at the right moment can change everything. Our Creator Connect speed networking sessions exist for exactly that reason,to bring the right people into the same room. In our latest Community Spotlight, we're celebrating a match made between a tech entrepreneur and an artist. The result? A powerful conversation about Trax, a platform that lets fans invest in music royalties for as little as 1 Rand, turning passive listeners into active supporters with real skin in the game. This is what community looks like. This is what Creator Connect makes possible.
