 Ermm... Lots of stories. Okay there's this particular one that still trills me anytime... Hahaha... Happened right I front of me. Okay, few years ago my family traveled to the village for my late grandfather's funeral, you know as city people naa, we needed to explore everything about the village life. Lol... This  particular day we followed some of family members to the stream which is a normal routine. You know so happy to feel the air and freshness of the vegetation my younger brother "Ogadinma" and myself decided to swim. We undressed and got into the shallow part of the water trying to swim, then I started hearing some funny sounds like somebody really gulping some serious water in the mouth, turned around and noticed it's my own brother that is really into this water business almost loosing his breath...Lol... I was shocked and amazed as well as everybody in the stream. I raised him up and asked "wetin happen", he replied "I dey swim naa... I told he was almost drowning... He said "Shebi Naso fish dey swim naa, dem dey always open mouth" everybody burst into laughter. I was like Wow so you wan drink the water for stream finish ? Hahahaha... Everybody laughed at the scene wondering if this is a city boy or a forest boy. Hahahaha.

Why did you decide to choose acting as a career?

Hahahaha... I love that question... I didn't choose acting, acting chose me. It is the "most heard" calling. And i started discovering myself in it while I was boy, about 5-6 years old then always participating in almost every activities in church, drama, dance, recitation even got awards in Sunday school department. You know, not knowing I was having fun training  and harnessing myself and talent to a career which kick started  professionally 2009 now paying my bills today and will continue to pay. Lol. AMEN !

What skills according to you are necessary for a successful actor ?

According to me, To be a successful actor one must possess some certain skills, just to mention a few; 

1. An actor must be convincing in his role and accurately portray elements such as time and emotion to the audience. To be a successful in front of the camera or on stage.

 2. Which I feel is first thing first (I stand to be corrected) A great actor shows tremendous respect to the craft, script, writers, directors and all other key personnel involved in a production.

3. There is a true commitment to becoming the best actor he/she can be, as well as to working hard and preserving through rejection to find the best roles especially during auditions and castings.

4. A great actor is confident in his work and portrays that confidence both during a performance as well as in public to help create a rapport with the public which is also important because you're the mirror of yourself. 

5. A great actor has a natural talent for performing and entertaining.

6. To be a successful actor, must at least some degree of vanity that drives him/her  to continue to improve and excel at the craft, then there's no limit to being successful.

How do you handle attention ?

 Just being me. In as much as everybody loves attention, being original and not forgetting to smile.

Your most embarrassing moment ?    

Hahahahaha... Okay this one is so awkward Oh God ! Choi !! Hahahaha... Went for an event looking all fly and glamorous with with friends and colleagues and a warm reception to the table, you know, feeling feeling fly like celebrities... Lol. After so many greetings as I was innocently about to sit down I heard a "praa" bent and realized it was my pants.... Hahahaha ! Oboy ! Well, I just continued the wide smile on my face only myself, the chair and my friend sitting close to me I told immediately. Oh well, you might ask what did I do ? Brother, I was stuck in that chair until the end of the show mehn ! And almost the last person to leave the venue. Lol... Was funny thou !

Your philosophy about life?       

My philosophy can also be called my priorities which are God, family and career. Not forgetting to make somebody smile everyday either by giving and empowerment. Live, love and laugh. Be happy ! That's all.

7 RULES TO MAKING A GOOD SHORT FILM.

Have the determination of a mirror. It never loses it's ability to reflect, even when it's broken into thousands of pieces.

My name is Eze Prince Justice, without any further ado, let's go straight to the point.

   7 Rules to Making a Good Short Film

1. Have An Original and Unique Idea
a. Avoid clichés – (e.g. Do not start the film with you waking up in the
morning/alarm clock going off. It’s boring and overdone!)
b. Try to look at the subject from a different angle
c. Keep it simple
d. Focus on a theme/message, not individual character development

2. It’s Not About Fancy Special Effects
a. The subject, message, or theme is the most important
b. Often used tip: think about editing/changing scenes when you blink. This
may signal a natural “break”
c. If you remember the special effect more than the message of the film, you should revise
d. Beware of style over substance, even if you’re experimenting with new
techniques or developing your own style

3. Ensure High Production Values
a. Colour and lighting adjustments should be made for continuity
b. Sound quality should be clear and volume should be appropriate (think of
both music as well as dialogue)
c. Editing should be appropriate and clean

4. Make it Short
a. A good rule to go by: The longer your short film is, the harder it is to keep the viewer’s attention, especially if you plan to post your film for an audience online. (The averageamount of time an online viewer spends watching film is 1 minute to 4 minutes!)
b. The more you do with less, the more impressive your product will be
c. Every scene must have a purpose. If you could eliminate one and the film would still be effective, then you don’t need it
d. This should hint to you just how important planning each scene is

5. Start with a Strong Beginning
a. Grab the viewer’s attention from the very first shot
b. Don’t waste time on long intros and/or credits. It’s not about you!
c. Don’t waste time on long establishing shots
d. Audiences like to “put things together” – don’t spoon feed them with too
much information
e. Show the work-in-progress to someone who has never seen it to get
feedback throughout the post-production process!

6. Tie Up Some Loose Ends (if you want to)
a. Short films are often about showing a glimpse of real life so you do not need to have an ending where absolutely everything is resolved. It’s OK if the film could continue with the credits.
b. There is no need for a happy ending
c. Make your audience think about your work—and continue thinking as they leave the theatre
d.  Make your film appeal to iya Bose selling pepper and daddy Kazeem, shoe maker as well as top notch filmmakers. Movie makes the world go round.

MY CULTURE MY PRIDE SAVE A SOUL--MCMP-SAS (with the slogan: Our CULTURE, Our PRIDE! We do it, we are FULFILLED!) is a social welfare initiative founded in 2014 towards assisting youths and children who are exposed to cycles of high risk factors such as poverty income level or low economic status, low school attainment, gang violence, juvenile delinquency, substance abuse and teen parenthood Shelcans Entertainment, through this initiative, on 6th December, 2015 organized an exciting event at the Okuemi hotel (former Mimi suites) Warri to assist children with low school attainment. This event cannot be forgotten in a hurry in Warri assist was proudly supported and endorsed by the Ministry Of Basic and Secondary Education Delta State. Major highlight of the event was an Essay Writing Competition among students of secondary schools in Warri. The competition was designed as criteria "A" in reaching out to indigenous and indigent students. ​

 We urge prominent individuals and reputable organizations in both Delta State and in Nigeria also to demonstrate positive "Save A Soul" attitude by giving encouragement to youths through various gifts, materials, and funds to these talented indigent youths/children.

 The event was indeed a memorable one as the Creative Director/Manager, Eze Prince Justice proposed to his beautiful heartthrob, Miss Nollywood Peace 2014 – Oyawiri Sheila Onome (the CEO Shelcans Entertainment)‎ same day which was a big surprise to Sheila herself and everybody in attendance.
