Izu Ojukwu

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Izu Ojukwu is a Nigerian film director. Working predominantly on action films, this technically driven director is known for his unorthodox camera work and visuals. He frequently collaborates with Emeka Hill Umeasor.

Entering the industry straight out of high school in 1991, Izu has done comparably few movies, preferring to better equip himself with practical training rather than classroom knowledge. Izu never enrolled for film studies as he banked on his confidence to see him through.[citation needed]

Izu was a featured part of the documentary Welcome to Nollywood (2007), as it followed him making his 2006 film, La Viva.
