While urging the movie industry to emulate their American counterpart, Tyler Perry who has built sound stages and studios, Joke Silva said that she is very much aware of what it takes for scenes of a movie to be shot, explaining that if two people are to shoot a scene, over twenty people have to be present.

She said: “We shoot in apartments these days. But I won’t allow movies to be shot in my home. it won’t happen.

“I know the number of people that are brought into a shoot. There may be two people in a scene, but over twenty people will probably be there to shoot it. That means 20 people will put their hands on my wall, and do other things.

“We need to build our studios and sound stages, just like American filmmaker, Tyler Perry who built one of the biggest sound stages in the world. Because sound stages give you control and allow you to make movies at your desired pace.”
