Who could believe that someday in Cameroon, movies would be shot on a regular basis? As we write, actors are on set virtually every where in country. Reaching actors or directors these days is difficult. They are all on movie locations for this or that project. The meaning of this is that in the coming months, our movie market will be flooded with films. Weare also told that TV channels in and out of country have been eyeing Cameroonian productions.

Reports fromBamenda say they are several movie projects going on there. Rising actors are either on set, shooting or at someplace auditioning forroles. Among the movie projects in Bamenda is NEXUS, a Musing Dereck film. From all indications, NEXUS is going to be the biggest production ever in Bamenda.
