1.1 BACKGROUNDThe growly spate of globalization has put other cultures at risk.

Particularly, cultures of tribes that are not considered major have been

on the brink of extinction for sometime now. In Nigeria for instance,

smaller tribes within North Central and Northern parts of the country

have been overrun by the Hausa Islam culture, whose aspects, have also

been affected by the Euro-American traditions this means conscious

efforts must be made to preserve indigenous cultures from the corrosion

of globalization.

In another dimension, the alarming increase in unemployment

rate amongst the youth is what must be checked. The arts offer a veritable

platform that avails opportunities to both the schooled and unschooled.

Since government alone cannot satisfactorily engage the teeming youth of

the nation, private concern and spirited individual continue to contribute

to ease this problematic. This contributions come in different ways such as

skills acquisition trainings, carnivals, sports, business grants, film

productions, etc. All these engage the youths thereby keeping off crime.

Against the above background, this cinema film project is

designed to preserve and project the Agila culture and as well create

employment for the youths. This will also serve as a springboard for

launching Agila youths into stardom. The concept owners of the project

are particularly interested in you as a sponsor due to your track record of

activities in cultural promotion and youth empowerment, from which the

AGILA CULTURAL CARNIVAL and FACE OF IDOMA pageant stand

out. As a prince of Agila, it is strongly believed that this cinema film is one

that will benefit from your passion for cultural promotion and youth

empowerment.

1.2 BUSINESS GOALTo present the Agila culture to the word and empower the youths.

1.3 BUSINESS OBJECTIVE Promote Agila culture and give it a pride of place among the comity

of global cultures.

Reduce youth redundancy through meaningful engagement Enhance economic empowerment through cultural marketing and

job creation

Provide a springboard for career advancement.1.4 MARKET ANALYSIS

The choice of cinema is strategic, regular Nollywood films are

more cumbersome to market and the chain of distribution is

clumsy. For cinema, once shooting and editing is complete, the

tape is handed to the premiering company (here silverbird

television is proposed), terms are negotiated in percentages of

either 50-50 or 60-40, depending on the nature of preferences of

both parties. Here funds are generated in a stream and pooled

together from the various viewing centres across the nation on-

ward sharing.

1.5 COMPETITION ANALYSISThere are numerous movie producers but only a few are into

cinema production. Yet this project promises to stand out because

its content is unique. The market is saturated with stories from

Igbo cultural background, and Western glamour. A story from the

rich Agila background will not only serve a viable alternative

variety but also bring satisfaction to the audience.

1.6 MARKETING MIX Product:The product is a cinema film-showcasing the rich

cultural heritage of the Agila people. The story is woven

around various aspects as one storyline can carry the

choice of cinema is to make easy sales and quick returns on

invested capital. It will also provide a big platform on

engaging as many youths as possible.

Place: The film will be shot on location in the Agilacommunity so as to bring real time representation of the

people into perspective. Distribution will be nation wide

and beyond. The major cinema centres in the country will

be utilized. In Benue particularly, because there are nocinema, halls will be hired and utilized. Copies of the film

will also be on sale across the nation price. The project is

capital intensive, however investment are guaranteed to

bring returns. The unit price of the film will be determined

at the end of project so as to ensure that the entire cost of

production is factored in, however at the premier of the film

at the cinema, ticket will be sold in different categories. The

premier will take place in several cinema halls across the

nation to ensure substantial rake in.

Promotion: To ensure maximal sales and good publicreception of project, promotion will be aggressively pursed

via radio satellite television stations (like sliver bird,

channels, Africa Magic ,etc), souvenirs items (T-shirts, biros,

bambinas, wristbands) for standard cinema premiers, 5

weeks of intensive promotion activities are required.

1.7 SPONSORS GAIN ANALYSISAfter sales and proceeds from cinema houses invested capital willbe subtracted and what remains as profit will be shared between

sponsor and producer in a 80% :20% arrangement.

1.8 CONCLUSIONThe project is timeous. It is worth while not only as an investment

opportunity, but also a plat form for rendering service to the

fatherland through cultural preservation and promotion, and

youth economic empowerment.
