REGIONAL PROJECT
CIRTEF: POST-PRODUCTION AND PROFESSIONAL TRAINING
CENTRE IN EAST AFRICA
Project No: PDC/48 RAF/02 (354 RAF 5041)
US$50 000
TYPE OF PROJECT
In response to the lack of high-performance equipment in African television and cinema industries,
CIRTEF has launched a project to create a complete post-production unit with good access to
international communication networks in East Africa. Two such centres have already been
successfully created in West and Central Africa.
Equipped with a digital film-editing and post-production unit, the centre will make it possible to:
• Make available to African television companies reliable equipment to edit or re-edit a selection of the
best programmes featuring their cultural identity as well as the best educational programmes;
• Provide opportunities for high-level training (directors, film-editors);
• Provide opportunities for international broadcast of these productions (via the networks of TVS);
• Make international audiovisual co-productions (UNESCO, UNICEF among others) at less cost;
• Post-produce the best African productions in Africa rather than in Europe.
The long-term objective of this project is to enhance the visibility of the cultural identity of the
countries concerned to empower Africa to develop and promote its own image and its own
communication.
IMPLEMENTATION
IPDC approved the CIRTEF Project in 2005 with funding of US $ 50,000 against the requested
amount of US $ 120,000. Based on the approved funds, CIRTEF was requested to revise their activities
and purchase equipment according to the available funds. A contract with CIRTEF was signed soon
after, and the process of sourcing for quotations from reputable international suppliers and presenting
to UNESCO CIRTEF's recommendations and justifications on the best bids was carried out in the
month of September/October. Having fulfilled the terms of reference as per the signed contract, US $
45,000 was thereafter disbursed to CIRTEF account and the purchase and installation of the
equipment has been ongoing for the last three months. A contract amendment was requested by
CIRTEF to allow enough time for the purchasing process. It is expected that by 30th December,
CIRTEF will present to UNESCO a narrative and financial report, justifying and detailing the
activities and expenditure, after which the last installment will be made. CIRTEF's Secretary General
has been very cooperative, making the implementation process smooth and quick
RESULTS:
With complementary funding from CIRTEF it is expected that a modern complete post-production
unit will be set up in East Africa as expected.
CONCLUSION:
Africa needs this type of projects as they reinforce the skill base of audiovisual production and greatly
contribute to the consolidation of the audiovisual industry in the region.
