Actress Sitsofe Tsikor has shed light on the challenges faced by movie producers when it comes to promoting their films in the media space.<\/p>\n
Speaking at the press launch of her debut movie premiere titled \u2018Evor\u2019 in Accra, Sitsofe Tsikor who doubles as a producer indicated that movies produced by Ghanaian film makers don\u2019t receive the necessary promotion they need due to the huge sums of money involved in their promotion.<\/p>\n
Additionally, she highlighted the reluctance of some media outlets to support producers in promoting their movies, which further deters potential filmmakers from entering the industry.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe movie industry is hard as it already is and we don\u2019t get enough help, especially from the media. We called for a press conference and interviews to speak about the film to generate interest among the public ahead of the movie premiere and only a handful are present,\u201d she made this statement in reaction to the low-turn of media houses invited for her movie launch.<\/p>\n
She emphasised the challenges of securing media coverage for movie promotions and stressed the financial burden that filmmakers face.<\/p>\n
\u201cA lot of commitment comes with calling for media houses to support you in movie promotion and already when you have to produce a film it is very expensive. We don\u2019t get any help from private entities or cooperates,\u201d Ms. Tsikor lamented.<\/p>\n
Sitsofe Tsikor appealed to media organisations including bloggers, to allocate time to highlight the achievements of individuals in the creative space as a way to inspire and rejuvenate the sector.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo we are begging instead of sharing content that describes someone\u2019s physique, please allocate a little time to support those who are doing something beneficial in society,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n
