I’m Musa Oyiza Rahama – a creative technologist, cinematographer, and software engineer crafting digital stories, short films, and interactive experiences grounded in African culture and Afrofuturism.
I studied BSc.Ed Computer Science and I’m actively merging software engineering, cinematography, and Afrofuturistic storytelling to build Afrocode Studio — a digital-first African film & tech universe.
A filmmaker with a computer science brain — and a software engineer with a filmmaker’s heart — building a new generation of African stories for the screen and the web.
I am a Nigerian creative technologist with a background in BSc.Ed Computer Science. My work sits at the crossroads of film, storytelling, and software engineering. I love crafting worlds where African culture, technology, and human stories meet.
Over the years, I’ve written and developed multiple Nigerian-inspired story universes — from heartwarming billionaire folktales to Afrofuturistic concepts that imagine what our future could look like on screen and online.
On the tech side, I am committed to building tools, web experiences, and digital products that support storytellers — from lightweight dashboards to interactive experiences designed for emerging creators and studios.
My long-term vision is to grow Afrocode Studio into a digital-first African film & tech lab — a place where short films, story universes, and creative software live together, and where young people can learn to build both stories and software.
I am also exploring pathways to study digital media / film / creative technology in Canada, not just to relocate, but to gain the skills, network, and exposure needed to scale Afrocode globally.
A mix of film, cinematography, and tech — showing how I use story, visuals, and code to build experiences that feel African, modern, and global.
Visual story based on a Nigerian folktale-style script about a homeless girl whose act of kindness changes her destiny when she crosses paths with a billionaire.
Ongoing experiment: produce 8 short visual clips every week to practice framing, light, movement, and emotional storytelling for social and streaming platforms.
A simple web-based dashboard concept for tracking story universes, episodes, and characters across multiple Nigerian-inspired film projects.
A planning tool idea that helps indie filmmakers manage scenes, props, and emotional beats — designed for African low-budget production realities.
Concept posters and mood frames exploring “Ndi Ichie” and other Afrofuturistic universes — fusing traditional wear, neon cities, and African spiritual symbolism.
Early design thinking for Afrocode.tv as a mini “African Netflix” — a clean interface to host short films, episodic stories, and interactive experiences.
Writing helps me organise my mind, document progress, and share what I’m learning at the intersection of film, migration, and technology.
A breakdown of the long-term vision for Afrocode — why I believe combining film, software, and African stories can create a powerful creative-tech ecosystem.
