Makhulu

Makhulu in Ndeble means BIG and that’s exactly what we’re all about. BIG ideas. BIG passion. BIG faith.

We are a passionate team of storytellers, filmmakers, researchers and film editors passionate about creating and distributing media that can be used as a tool to activate dialogue and social change. We are passionate about transforming the local media industry. Makhulu, is run on an apprenticeship model. Our core team is comprised of individuals from previously disadvantaged backgrounds and we provide training on the job. Our media advocacy wing Sunshine Cinema allows us to realise our passions for media training and active citizenship.

Over the years we have been fortunate enough to work with clients who share the same values; companies and non-profits who are committed to making BIG changes to the way they do business (and reach out to their surrounding communities).

To date we have helped NGO’s like Doctors Without Borders, UNAIDS, The Childrens Radio Foundation, the Q-Fund, Baobab Connections, The African Dream Trust and Feedback to raise their public profiles. We have also assisted corporate companies like Volkswagen , Redbull Media House and Red Bull to document their social responsibility initiatives. In Red Bull’s case we film and photograph Streetstyle, Taster, BC One, Sound Clash and other projects, events and places.

Our business has four divisions - video production, photography and graphic design, and Virtual Reality
