What's Next?
We are really cheeky at Yanibes Consulting... So, we let you answer that question.
One pointer though, as they say, curiosity is good for the mind and keeps your belly full.
We are not sure from which African country/tribe that saying comes from, but we are convinced someone said it. That said, you are welcome to share your extensive knowledge of sayings and other proverbs during our Virtual African Tour...
Just make sure that your proverbs have to do with filmmaking, media and tech and that you have your IMDb profile up-to-date, your tech (street) creds and that you are a recommended card carrying media person. Nothing more.
On the other hand, don't be scared away if you are short on proverbs, not all of us are prolific proverb experts, so keep browsing.
The Virtual African Tour conversations are about the business of film and how to accrue collaborations and set up in motion realistic and viable projects. And we may link you up afterwards, so there is one reason for you to keep up with the Virtual African Tour.
See ya soon then...
