A Nigerian woman has called out a movie producer after discovering her wedding photo had been used without permission in a Nigerian movie with actors’ faces photoshopped onto her and her spouse.
The woman @larabillionaire shared on Twitter (X) that poor production has a mutually beneficial relationship with the Nigerian entertainment sector.
In her tweet,
“Huge chunk of those in the Nigerian entertainment industry (and the whole country tbh) have an affinity for mediocrity Shoddy attempt at creativity and just overall unprofessionalism. Cos why is my wedding picture in a movie with faces of the actors plastered on our faces? I’ve tried my best to reach out to the writer(?) of the movie, all to no avail. As a person in such public space, why are you unreachable? Just senseless on all fronts.”
She questioned why the production team would try to show off their skill and creativity by photoshopping the actors’ faces onto her wedding photo. Her attempt to connect with the film’s producer and writer has failed.
Reactions have trailed online, with many stating the production team was supposed to organize a photo shoot for the actors.
