@Adew0ye We can’t keep waiting for one association to save us! If DGN isn’t doing enough, den directors need 2 step up nd push internally or build better structures. Structures dnt become strong because dey exist, It grows by participation nd not by vibes we have 2 organize intentionally.

@thealienvisuals But who is supposed to start this conversation, the DGN practically has been doing nothing for the industry as far as I know. Zero.

Directors, make we talk small. we need to wake up. Section 89 of the Copyright Act is being debated. Billions in levy funds are being discussed. And guess who is not in the room? Us! Stay with me o!

@fozadoza My own is We no even dey the room because we no position ourselves as owners. If we don’t retain IP, what exactly should or will anybody collect for us? Our current structure automatically removes us from royalty and levy conversations. If we don’t own, we can’t be included.
English
@fozadoza Thanks so much queen for bringing up AVRS but my question is - If directors don’t retain rights or co produce, how exactly are we supposed to benefit from any CMO structure that only represent rights holders? While Most directors are only structured as service providers.
English
I’m triggered. We complain that our predecessors couldn’t unite. Yes they let ego and popularity ruin structure and their vision. So what exactly are we doing differently in 2026? With all these information we have?! IRE O!
English
The quicker we insert ourselves into IP conversations, the better. Ownership is power.
Structure is how we can activate it. Conversation is currency. Directors in Nigeria and across Africa, we need to organise. Not for ego. For economics. This is no more a popularity contest!
English
This is about being recognised as an ownership class in the creative economy. If we are not building structures, we will always be contractors. In Hollywood, directors negotiate backend.They form guilds.They build companies.They sit in policy rooms.We need that level of thinking!
English
The law did not exclude us directors The structure did. If we do not retain rights, co produce, or own through your company, we are continually going to be invisible in policy conversations. This is bigger than shoot money. Stay with me o!
English
That structure keeps us outside every long term revenue ecosystem. Labels are arguing! CMOs are arguing. Representatives are arguing! Because they own IP! We Directors / Filmmakers can’t even have a conversation. Because why?? We do not own shit! 🤡
English
Note o! This levy is about compensation for infringement. It rewards ownership Not hustle, Not aesthetics, Not vibes, Ownership. Most of us direct music videos as service providers. We collect fee. Deliver master. Transfer rights. Shikena!
