From Begena Productions to Millennium Studios

Since we opened our doors a year ago, our operations have grown. We currently have more than 25 artists under contract and have produced a number of events and products within the local market.

As we attempt to merge Ethiopian cultural flavors and talents with modern marketing and promotions, we decided that some restructuring was needed. Our goal is to penetrate international audiences with Ethiopia themes showcasing a variety of talents, arts and other creative elements and so w e recruit, train and manage talent for projects including music and video productions, movie casting, fashion, theme shows and any other entertainment venues

In addition, the Studio seeks to provide up and coming artists with an independent platform where they can seek a fair stake from the commercial returns produced by their efforts. Alot of times Ethiopian artists are asked to work on a project for free and many sacrifice earning wages to gain exposure. Our platform allows us to represent them as a high powered management company to seek fair compensation for their labor before they commence work on a project.

Millennium has a number of powerful elements to its core activities that makes it an premiere player in the Ethiopian entertainment industry.Our strengths can be summarized as follows:

• State of the Art capacity for pre-production and post production of entertainment products
• Enormous pool of creative expertise and talent including inhouse engineers, producers, managers, technicians and writers
• Large talent database of c ontracted artists Africa, Europe and America who can work for us or you by referral
• Dynamic international partnerships with major entertainment industry players from Africa and America
• Excellent marketing, promotion and distribution mechanisms

We believe the name change will provide us with additional visibility and allow us to synthesize our promotional activities under one umbrella.
