This led to the partnership with EbonyLife Media on the EbonyLife Creative Academy initiative (ELCA). Through this initiative, the Lagos State Government will be providing FREE Film and Television courses at the EbonyLife Creative Academy for over 350 filmmakers yearly. Courses include Producing, Directing, Art Direction, Cinematography, Acting, Screenwriting, Editing and Sound. This means that thanks to the Lagos State Government, you have access to state-of-the-art facilities and an international faculty, helping you to accelerate your skills in becoming a world-class filmmaker. The EbonyLife Creative Academy (ELCA) was conceptualised by EbonyLife Media CEO, Mo Abudu and is supported by the Lagos State Government.
