The Media Academy for Journalism and Communication –MAJaC, on Friday orients 20 participants for the Film and Photography training. The programme which is funded by the International Trade Centre –ITC through Youth Empowerment Project –YEP is meant to build the capacity of these youth for a productive career and boost their employability.
Sang Mendy the Managing Director of MAJaC said the programme couldn’t have come at a better time than this, when The Gambia’s creative industry is doing well and needs people to help push the work to the world.
He said that a lot of efforts have been put into the design of the programme curriculum and training content manual. “We are confident that at the end of your programme, you would make MAJaC, ITC and partners proud and that you would also be proud of yourselves for applying to the programme.” He added.
“As a school that churns out students ready for the labor market, be rest assured that we will push you hard to be solution to the industry needs.” MD Mendy said.
Jason Florio, one of the trainers urged all participants to be professional on the field. He said that as would be photographers and film makers, it is important to be always on time and professional.
Fatoumatta Saidykhan, a participant said that attending her first lecture has informed her decision of joining the course. “It has made me look forward to attending more lectures and build my interest more in the course.” Saidykhan said talking about her first lecture experience.
