Scintillating new MTF film brings dreams to life

Meet Bongo Jwaqa, a young and ambitious filmmaker from King Williams Town, who is taking the world of storytelling by storm! Bongo's journey started with a small video camera in the hands of his father and has now taken him to the brink of joining the MultiChoice Talent Factory, where he is keen to realise his dream of becoming a famous director.

The MultiChoice Talent Factory (MTF) is a shared-value initiative that provides a platform for the creative industries to develop their talent and engage with one another through their shared passions.

Growing up in a small town in the Eastern Cape, Bongo was drawn to the magic of filmmaking from a young age. He spent hours at a local video store, watching movies and immersing himself in the world of storytelling. Little did he know that these experiences would shape his future aspirations.

Now, armed with a degree in journalism and a passion for filmmaking, Bongo has set his sights on becoming a renowned director, and he's not wasting any time! He's applied for the MultiChoice Talent Factory, a year-long program that offers practical experience and training in the industry.

Through shadowing current MultiChoice Talent Factory, Bongo has already had the opportunity to work on real-world projects and gain invaluable experience in television, film, and digital media.

For Bongo, filmmaking is about more than just telling a story. It's about evoking emotion and connecting with people through the power of visual storytelling. And he's well on his way to achieving his dreams!

So, if you're an up-and-coming storyteller looking to make your mark on the world, take a page out of Bongo's book and apply for the MultiChoice Talent Factory. Who knows where your journey might take you? The possibilities are endless!
