Mildred Okwo's focus for 2019 is obsessing over creativity

Film director and producer, Mildred Okwo will be obsessing over her work in 2019.

Mildred Okwo says she will be obsessing over her work in 2019.

"...this new year, I will not work with actors or crew who will not let me obsess with my work. I am not working with people who don’t get that we are supposed to enjoy creating art as much as making money from it," Okwo wrote.

The Meeting’ director and co-producer made the announcement on Thursday, January 10, 2019, while responding to a tweet from Femi Jacobs, who wrote, "It is rarely a waste of time to pursue something you're drawn to even if you end up quitting. You might apply that knowledge in a different field entirely, in a way you couldn't have anticipated. Quit this obsession with over-defining yourself. Express yourself

Mildred went further to write, "I will be as weird as I wannabe with my creativity as long as I am not harming anyone. I will paint with my brain every damn scene I shoot. I will push every single partner in art. You don’t like it just raise your hand and go. Now that I got that out of my system... I am ready."

Known for her bluntness, Mildred once said most producers inflate their cinema numbers to swindle investors while sharing her thoughts on Nollywood in 2015.
