About Me

My name is Evans Maina Karanja am a kenyan by birth Married and have three children.I live in Ndarasha village Murera location in Juja constituency Kiambu county. I live in self owned house. I was born in Nyahururu and grew up there. After school I came to Nairobi in search for greener pastures. I love art and that is how ended up in film and video production business. It is through this business I have been able to save and buy a plot of my own and built a house in which I live with my family. My ambition is to be the leading film producer in Kenya working with both local and international artists.

My Business

I am the sole proprietor of Sisimko films which deals in video and film production. I have produced several local artists as well as my own artistical works. Recently I have engaged local Television stations who have bought and aired my films like drama series Penzi Kichaa, "Maithori ma ruo", Malkia Teli among others. These films fetch an average of ksh50,000( fifty thousand shillings) per an episode of fifty minutes.On production of local artists I make an average of ksh12,000(twelve thousand shillings only)net per month. My plan is to major in film production for TV market which is now very potential after the government policy requiring all local TVs to air minimum 60% of local production. This calls the need to acquire advanced equipments.

Loan Proposal

In film production tripod is essential as it helps eliminate shaky pictures. It also enhances smooth panning for quality footage. Currently I don`t have one and this has been costing me a lot either through hiring or in case where I don`t use one I end up taking undesirable shots. Acquisition of the tripod will boost my production. I therefore find this first loan helpful to my business.
