 "Sights and Sounds of Lagos" Tourist Documentary Series Shot on Sony FS100 Digital Cinema Camera

I have just completed filming the first part of my "Sights and Sounds of Lagos" tourist documentary series using Sony FS100 and captured the
must see places in Lagos and believe it or not, there are millions of people in the same mega city of Lagos who have not been to many of
these unique places in Lagos. Even my Production Assistant Chibuzor Okoro has not been to The Palms in Lekki and she saw us capture the sunset on Victoria Island in captivating motion picture with Nigerian actress and model Mega Masha walking in the sunset with two horse riders along the road. It was awesome.
Millions of people in Lagos have not seen the sunset on Victoria Island. Now they will see it on film as never shown before.
Many Nollywood movies don't capture the scenic beauty of their locations.
The "Sights and Sounds of Lagos" is a must see, because the series will show the biggest mega city in Africa in motion as never seen before.
