Online comedian and content creator, Ayodele Aguda, popularly known as Mama Shem, tells ABIODUN SANUSI about his career, childhood and other issuesPeople call me Shem, Mama Shem or MC Shem. I am a comedian, actor and businessman. I run a studio in Lagos, where we produce entertainment content.That is one of the challenges that come with building a brand. One would not feel like it every time.
My mom, a very strict woman from Edo State shaped my background. Even when I was in the university, I used to imagine what my mum would do to me if I misbehaved and that made me not to do anything bad. The hardship I experienced as a child made me to become resolute in doing more and rewriting my life’s journey.I have a picture of myself when I was eight years old holding a microphone and people were laughing. I started by acting drama and whenever I was on stage, people used to laugh.
I started with that but I have been able to do a lot of other productions that people don’t even know I am the brain behind.It starts with conceptualisation. The idea is key. One has to think of ideas and when one finally has the idea, one has to process it, script it and bring out the comedy in it. Then, one will have to choose the cast by deciding who can play each character best. After that, one would have to decide on the location, the crew, before one eventually goes off to shoot it.
There is a process one must undergo before shooting skits. It is not as easy as the audience assumes. One could shoot a skit for two to three days and people would just watch it in five or ten minutes without them having an idea of what really went into making it.Honestly, I have not seen one person who can point to one particular skit that really made them know me per se. In my case, I didn’t ‘blow’ like people say or like some people had it.
Just make sure u don't graduate to Bob risky cos it's small small ppl get crazy
Great job well done
