How did EnyiCast begin?
In the 2005, before the of social media and mobile apps, Linda Obasi envisioned a database of talent combined with a newsfeed of casting calls. After interning at Bernard Telsey Casting on Broadway, Linda imagined a system that could streamline the process.
EnyiCast was first built in 2007 by an Abuja based IT specialist as a functional website with databases, newsfeeds, search engines and direct messaging. Unfortunately, Enyi Media, the small New York based startup under which it was created, was unable to meet the marketing demands needed for the website to gain recognition in Nollywood, for which it was built. Without social media or a huge marketing budget, it was a challenge.
EnyiCast was rebuilt as a mobile application and relaunched in August 2022. Casting apps are now the international standard in film industries. This time around, the sky is the limit for this robust casting solution called EnyiCast. From Nigeria to the continent at large, EnyiCast’s functionality will save filmmakers and talent time and money that can be channeled into bringing great stories to life.
