S1E7: From Jamuhuri To ADMI | An ADMI Christmas ft Wilfred Kiumi

Wilfred speaks about years spent working in film and live television, and how that experience slowly revealed a gap in the industry. Not talent. Readiness. Young people entering the field without the practical grounding needed to survive in real production environments. What began as Jamuhuri Film and Television Academy started in a single room with borrowed furniture and a handful of students. The goal was simple. Teach faster. Teach practically. Teach in a way that respected how the industry actually works. As digital media evolved, the vision expanded. The work was no longer just about film and TV, or even about Kenya. It became about building an institution that could respond to a continental need. This moment captures the thinking behind the transition from Jamuhuri to Africa Digital Media Institute. Not a cosmetic change. A shift in scope. Join us as we expand access to quality education and empower the next generation of African creatives.
