At order to develop her filmmaking skills, Mo Abudu enrolled in the London Film School in 2017 and successfully completed a directing course. She is prepared to use the knowledge and experience.
Taking to her Instagram page she dropped a lengthy note, she wrote;
Hello beautiful people ❤️❤️❤️
As many of you know, I went to the London Film School in 2017 and I did the Directors course. I thoroughly enjoyed it and decided at the end of the course that at God’s appointed time I would direct 🙏🏾
Directing is an art form that takes years to master, so I’m beginning with baby steps and we started shoot today 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
I have written two short films that I will be directing – HER PERFECT LIFE and IYAWO MI (My Wife), a predominantly Yoruba language film.
Although these stories are fictional, they highlight the mental health challenges, hardly spoken about in Nigerian society.
