Sinethemba Mchunu

I joined the Film Industry though a Film Industry Transformation Initiative (FITI) graduate training programme, provided by the KZN Film Commission in 2018, and acquired a Higher Certificate (NQF Level 5) in Film & Television studies. 

I have Produced the following films for the KZN Film Commission:

• Gender Fluid – A 40 minutes Doccu series; and
• Yamukela – A 40 minutes drama series.

My trajectory has expanded beyond expectations since joining the Film industry five years ago, and I am confident that I will deliver and exceed your expectations in this role. It is my insatiable appetite for learning & excellence, with devoted commitment to each project I partakes on that sets me apart.
