New vigour for SA film, TV market place
The new board of directors for Sithengi, South Africa's annual international film and television market, last week announced that its first priority is to assess the financial situation of the organisation, and consolidate a history that spans over a decade.
The members, nominated on 16 November 2007, have pledged their commitment and personal time, to ensure the continued success of Sithengi. “The Sithengi brand is strong and a very valuable marketing entity for the South African entertainment industry; it is regarded as the definitive platform to meet and conduct business with SA.”
Early next year, the board will meet to address a turn-around strategy that will include the planning of the next market.
The new board of directors includes: Bobby Amm (CPA), Carolyn Carew (Born Free Media), Cathrine Meyburgh (Sage/SASFED), David Forbes (Shadow Films), Lebone Maema (Matchbox/Fepaci), Dezi Rorich (Metal Moon), Dorothy Brislin (Film Resource Unit) Faith Isiakpere (CBFA), Firdoze Bulbulia (CBFA), Harriet Gavshon (Curious Pictures/TPA), Judi Nwokedi (Motorola), Mariam Sha (Mariam and Associates/WOTS), Nicola Rauch (SASWA), Richard Nosworthy (Plum Productions), and Zweletu Nondumo (Film & Publication Board).
