Africa Audio Visual Awards (TAVA), … Perfect Pictures, Perfect Sounds
Just like the name implies, Africa Audio-Visual Awards (a.k.a. ‘TAVA’ Awards) is an annual event created to honour outstanding indigenious films, music video, television productions, commercials and general programmes as well as the most creative performers, outstanding television houses and audio-visual equipment.
Without equivocation, NOLLYWOOD films in Africa, have come to stay, what with the global interest the industry has generated in the last decade of its existence. This industry has helped to curb brain drain through creating thousands of jobs for Nigeria and Africa’s teaming population of unemployment.
That African Films have continued to hold their own, despite criticisms; in the fiercely competitive global audio-visual market is a further testimony to the quality and uniqueness of Africa’s culture and her brand of storylines.
It is therefore for the purposes of encouraging the practitioners through rewards that will reawaken in them; the need to make conscious efforts towards training and re-training till perfection is attained that “TAVA” was created.
TAVA… the recognition and celebration of the harmony of perfect sounds and perfect pictures
“If Skill/Talent brings you fame and clients, training and re-training will keep you above your peers while diligence and integrity will maintain the fame and the clients for you.” - Okey Ogunjiofor
