The Kenyan Film industry is headed the right direction after international film agencies turn their focus on Kenya.

Netflix team based in Sub-Saharan African visited Nairobi on an exploratory journey to learn, listen and find more about the country’s creative industry from the various industry stakeholders.

The head content team Ben Amadasun stated that,  “The short story is why we are here to listen and learn from the various valued local stakeholders in the Kenyan film industry. As part of our strategy in every market we’ve focused on the world over. We first start by learning more about the industry, how it operates, and identify opportunities for collaboration with local storytellers and stakeholders within the creative industry ecosystem.”

“We’ve done the same in South Africa and Nigeria and, as we have always stated, we’ve had our eye on Kenya and now we want to get know a bit more about the industry – starting with the critical stakeholders like the Kenya Film Commission and others.

“There will be many other engagements with more stakeholders to come – this is just one of the many firsts. We’re also exploring the many ways we can collaborate with various industry stakeholders,” he said this stating that Netflix is beginning an African journey hunting down the many storytellers in Kenya and Africa as a whole.

Kenyans are set to experience an exciting and amazing 2021 in terms of viewing experience courtesy of TNT Africa that is set to launch a series of interesting shows, among them the much-hyped AEW Dynamite, an all-action wrestling program set to redefine the space.

The much-awaited AEW Dynamite will be a weekly flagship show from All Elite Wrestling, featuring a new professional wrestling league that is already taking the world by storm will be hitting the screens on Friday, February 5, at 2.20pm with the first five episodes of the new season. Then, every Friday night, during prime time at 9pm, the channel will premiere the recent high-octane matches, two days after the US premiere, and after that repeated twice throughout the week. This will be aired on both DStv channel 137 and Gotv channel 16 .

“AEW offers an alternative to mainstream wrestling with a roster of world-class talent offering TNT Africa viewers a spectacular weekly wrestling program jam-packed with action and the unexpected,” said Guillermo Farré, Head of the WarnerMedia General Entertainment channels across France, Iberia, and Africa.

Kenyans will be accorded a rare opportunity to enjoy a new global wrestling that features a world-class roaster of diverse male and female wrestlers, giving them a new wrestling experience for the first time in 20 years.

According to TNT Africa, the new professional wrestling is being headlined by members of The Elite (Cody & Brandi Rhodes, Matt & Nick Jackson, Kenny Omega and Hangman Page) as well as Chris Jericho and Jon Moxley, coloring the year with the most exciting and thrilling action.

“TNT is excited to usher in a new era in entertainment that is attuned to our audience’s needs and appetite. Despite how far we’ve come, we remain steadfastly dedicated to giving our African audience premium content, and the launch of AEW DYNAMITE and the channel refresh bear testament of this,” added Mr. Guillermo Farré.

Some call it a vision board, others a motivation board, all in all, they both have the same meaning. A vision/motivation board is a place where you comprise images, quotes, scriptures, or any other motivating elements that captivate the vision you have for yourself. A digital vision board is a collection of images and texts that you can take with you anywhere you go. It also takes less time to create than a physical vision board.

Vision boards have always fascinated me. The only problem is that I’m too lazy to make a physical one.  Getting pictures from old magazines, cutting them up and sticking them on A4 boards has always felt like a lot of work. Well, at least for me. I came across a digital one on Pinterest and immediately decided to learn how to make one. It actually turned out to be super easy than I expected.

Without further ado, let’s dive into the steps that you’re going to take in order to come up with the perfect digital vision board.

Figure Out What You Want To Manifest.

The initial step is to ask yourself what you want to invite into your life, and once you’re sure of what you want the board to be about, you can begin thinking about what will go on it. I, for instance, wanted my vision board to entail financial growth, intentional friendships among other things

Choose An App/Website.

The vision board I saw on Pinterest was made on Canva so I decided to use the same for mine. It’s easy to use and has a variety of board layouts.

Find Content For The Board.

You will pull images and words from the Internet and assemble them digitally. Choose images and quotes that align with your vision. You can also add text with different fonts to make it artsier.

Arrange The Board.

Once you’ve gathered all the content on your desktop,  start arranging the board. The trick is to take your time and have fun while at it. The process of making the vision board will help you to plan your goals and intentions in your head and send them out to the universe. Once you’re done, download it and set it as your phone wallpaper or computer background.

Remember, however small, please ensure that you do something every day that will push you towards the goals you’ve put on your board.

That’s all folks!
