Born and bred in Enugu, Nigeria, Ubochi Chibuzor Precious Jr., AKA Odinso, is a 19-year-old Nigerian who aspires to be a professional and award-winning Cinematographer, Photographer and Film Director. I am well convinced that the future of the African film industry is bright and that there are untapped creatives and opportunities in Africa. I so much admire the African film and industry for its culture and diversity. I also believe my time at MTF Academy will give me the opportunity to gain enough knowledge to make my dream come true.

I have written pitches for music and comedy videos, which involves coming up with an idea from the performer, then I work with the performer to collect the right picture for the idea.
my first experience on set was a comedy for an aspiring comedian in my neighborhood. I was working as a runner - helping all departments. I ran around getting involved and just wanted to help all departments and to really learn.
after everything, I learnt that people skills is very important in this industry. Collaboration of the crew, the clients, etc, because without them, you can't make anything happen, so you have to be polite and engaging to be the best out of people. it is great to meet people and try and further projects. that is one of the opportunities am sure, if admitted into MTF Academy, I will get.
