Harare, Zimbabwe. (News Of The South) – A local arts promotion company based in Harare is making waves by growing careers of artistes across genres.
Team Big Family which is a brainchild of 25-year-old Chengetai Mashiringwane has previously sponsored hip hop acts like Tehn Diamond’s tours early this year in which he toured the country’s 10 provinces but this time around the company is supporting a film production.
The playwright of the film entitled ‘Talent and Destination’ Nyasha Nhau confirmed to this publication that he was working with TBF in the forthcoming movie which has a cast of raw talent in the arts industry.
The Chitungwiza-born Nhau said the production’s main thrust is to promote young artistes across genres and also to encourage parents to support their children when they take arts as a career.
“In this play we gathered young people who are talented in dancing, music, film and modeling just to mention but a few. This is in a way a launching pad for most of them.
“The film also is an inspiration to parents that they should not discourage children taking arts as a career as many have been successful in their own right after taking it(arts)as a profession,” said Nhau.
In the film which is on its final stages of completion, ‘Talent and Destination’ explores the negativity that surround the modeling industry where models are abused by modeling agents.
“In the film you will see that it sets to explore the various negativity that has mired the modeling industry for a long time and it also seek to empower young girls on how they can deal with such predicaments,” explained the playwright and director.
Meanwhile,TBF founder and CEO has promised a bigger hip hop concert dubbed ‘The 100% HIP HOP CONCERT’ which will feature an array of artistes including Tehn Diamond and Ammara Brown who is currently riding high with a single ‘Akili’.
