Gaborone born and raised Lorato Orapeleng is passionate about the video entertainment industry and the talent that African creatives have to offer.

With a degree in Motion Picture from AFDA in Botswana, 23-year-old Lorato says she is ready to be a part of MTF, and strengthen her ability to create stories and TV shows that will captivate audiences across Africa.

“I am hoping to gain skills on how to pitch, produce and write stories relevant to the market,” says Lorato, who believes that through collaboration Africa’s film and TV industry has potential to elevate to greater heights and unite to create its own version of Hollywood.
