The founder of Mainframe Productions, Tunde Kelani is moving to the small screen. Tunde
Kelani is known for making blockbuster movies under his Mainframe
Productions studio. But the movie director is now extending his creative
genius to the small screen with the debut of his online TV channel,
TundeKelani TV. TKTV will debut on Friday, August 7, 2015 on www.tundekelani.tv.
According to the producer, the online TV will
dish out high quality,
entertaining, culturally sensitive productions from Nigeria, Africa and
the Diaspora.
Kelani is known for adapting popular myths, legends, aspects of
history and literary works for the big screen, drawing from Nigerian,
especially Yoruba, culture.
A graduate of London Film School, Kelani’s movies include, Oleku, Thunderbolt (Magun), Koseegbe and Maami.Frustrated with the piracy in the Nigerian movie industry, Kelani once
announced his intention to abandon film production as despite the
popularity of films, he had often failed to realise the fruits of his
labour.
