Naijanimation!

I ran into this while nosing around on the web (nosing can have its good sides, u know). It's a 2d animation made with Toon Boom by a Nigerian called Bode 'Breezie' Aruleba in his spare time. Although the music (which isn't very original) does get in the way of the dialogue quite often, I think the animator comes across as having a good and engaging sense of story telling - it'll make u laugh. You should check it out!



Like some of the live action movies from Nigeria, it is the premises on which the stories are told that draws its following.

Wetin dey?


Hey everyone! Welcome to my blog. I'm a film maker from Nigeria with a special interest in directing both animation and live action. I figured I've got quite a bit lined up for this year and thought it'd be great to share all that with u. Coming from a phenomenally peculiar film industry where the term 'By any means necessary' defines everything, I hope to share a lot regarding making films 'by any means necessary', my personal approach to my projects and useful hints for other film enthusiasts out there.
