"From Master Class to Ivory Coast"
I started my relationship with AfroVFX, quite simply, by giving a master class, but I didn't expect such an adventure, until going to Ivory Coast. What I remember from the young people at AfroVFX is their incredible motivation. They fully deserve everything that happens to them.

Rodé FX"Dreams to Reality"
We all want to see African content worthy of international blockbusters. It is not a dream but a reality, given the advances and surprises that our creators provide us. This is why we have been delighted to support this project from the start and create employment opportunities for the young people who will benefit from this exciting program.

Orange Digital Center"Giving Back"
It is very important to give back to others. I have always dreamed of getting involved with those moving and shaping things in Africa, but I never had any concrete opportunities. AfroVFX is a fantastic opportunity to open the doors to VFX in Africa and I am proud to be involved as an instructor since the first cohort.

Africa has a lot to offer, whether in terms of mythology, history, or artistic and technical knowledge. An initiative like AfroVFX is an opportunity to provide the human resources needed to develop projects and realize this potential.
