It was in June, when we decided to adventure on a production that centers about males voices been heard. We made plans, created a finance to budget the film and we started what's meant to be done. I realized that professionals usually takes lots of time to make good films that meets aesthetic qualities. It was stressful but worth taken as it exposes us to locations where I haven't been nor heard of before. The environment so quiet and the house itself…Gosh!!! The interior designs and beautiful art drawings shouldered alot of real life scenarios and I got curious and decided to ask questions 😌 like the real me. My team- are quite amazing creatures from God- the arguments turned laughter, and laughter into serious moments so as to achieve what we all have uniformly envisioned. It was a great and good treat and I started imagining myself as a film producer and other funny  imaginable things. The costumes, vfx makeup did a great job. While main scenes was still shot, despite the fact some actor blooper, behind the scenes was taken and even without editing yet, it took a shape and correct format of exactly what we all imagined.
