Making a music video requires a lot of hard work, commitment and seriousness in order for the shooting sequences to be a success. It’s a hectic undertaking but at the end of it all, the rewards are greatly felt. Mandiva is behind the production of music videos by Funti K “Am 4 Real” and most recently Red Linso and Winston “Tulo”. Under the label MT Entertainment owned by himself and Thomas Banda “Tommy B”, they have taken Southern Africa by storm with their talents and skills. Mandiva and Tommy B have an album ready for the market entitled “Face To Face” which is a Gospel Hip Hop album that is hyper and funky. The album has blazing beats which most Hip Hop Heads would listen to.
At present Mandiva is based in South Africa and is currently working as a Video Editor for Southern Africa Media Industries. He has been an Editor for about two years on a serious level and has produced videos for DJ Mujava, DJ Sailman, Rass, Funti K, Red Linso and Winston and for his crew MT GodBless. He has also done big projects with Palm Golding and a lot of other projects with the South African government especially in the Northern Province.
As an individual he is inspired by his mother and father who are both leaders. His father is Chief Chipepo of Southern Province while his mother is a Politician. In terms of video production, he was inspired by Oceans 11, more especially that the goal for MT Entertainment is to produce ‘Block Buster African Movies’ and thus be in a position to give back to the community.
