The old generation will one day disappear and a new generation will take over. This is true about all aspects of life and industry. Some people and organizations have not only realised this but they are making strategic efforts to train the younger generation in the way they should go.
Any doubt about this, especially in the South African film industry, was quashed recently, with the auditions at AMPA Studios for KOS Talent Management.
Notable industry players Khayakazi Kula and Abdul Khoza joined others on the judging panel to pick talented actors and provide a platform for them to progress with their talents.
Over 300 talents showed up on the platform to advertise their talents before the judges and see if they get picked as key talents to brush up and look out for in the coming months.
Khayakazi Kula and Abdul Khoza were especially singled out for praise by Gogo Mansini for their work on the platform in selecting talents and nurturing the same to bloom into future leaders in the acting space themselves.
The South African film industry is thriving and already has several exports despite not being as large as, say, Hollywood.
