The Nigerian Film Industry (Nollywood) has been recognised as one the largest contributors in the Nation’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP). However, despite its enormous contribution to the Nigerian economy, the industry is constantly plagued by several challenges which includes funding and financing problems.
As a potential filmmaker exploring entry into film production or looking to scale up your projects, understanding the mechanism for financing in the Nigerian film industry is essential. Whilst there are a number of film financing options filmmakers can consider, it is pertinent to note that each option comes with its own benefits, risks, and legal considerations.
