Founder and CEO of Best of Nollywood Awards founder, Seun Oloketuyi, is set to unveil his latest work, Making Movies the Nollywood Way, a richly detailed coffee-table book that captures the spirit, struggles, and triumphs of Nigeria’s vibrant film industry.
The book offers a unique blend of Oloketuyi’s reflections alongside contributions from 21 leading Nollywood figures, including Ọpa Williams, Wale Adenuga, and Emem Isong. Through their professional insights, the publication documents the creative process behind Nollywood’s rise, providing lessons for practitioners and inspiration for cinema lovers.
Describing the project as a “labour of love,” Oloketuyi who also host a weekly Podcast, Nollywood On Radio, explained that the book goes beyond filmmaking techniques. “It’s about telling our stories, our struggles, and our successes in a way that resonates with both practitioners and lovers of cinema,” he said.
The unveiling will feature a public reading, a discussion session, and an interactive exchange between Nollywood veterans and students, making it both an educational and cultural moment for Nigeria’s creative community.
Making Movies the Nollywood Way will be officially launched on September 7, 2025, at the University of Lagos
