I am Michael Okpala
A Writer & Director
ABOUT ME
As a visionary writer, I am well-versed in the areas of creative writing (fiction, non-fiction, and poetry), content creation (blogging, article writing, and SEO), storytelling (short stories and novels), research (cultural, historical, and academic), and editing (developmental and copy editing). My strengths lie in my networking, public relations, and managerial abilities, which allow me to easily metamorphose and blend into any work environment surrounding the literal niche.

Olúgbénga Peter
Founder and Producer, RútònExplore Cinema
As a bonafide student of the Department of Performing and Film Arts, I’m on a revolutionary journey to tell stories through more ways than words. Our world is drifting, and there is a constant shift from literature to cinema. This, I have critically observed, and I have chosen to put my creativity to good use in this regard. As such, I pick my Perfect Pieces—works of art and creative storytelling—and carve them into visually appealing cinematic works, what we may all describe as movies. Using my directorial inclinations, I make these short movies and feature films under the umbrella of my brand—Perfect Picture!
