Africa-Press<\/a> – Rwanda<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>While the likes of Spiderman, Adventures of Tintin, Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV and Batman have established themselves among the world\u2019s must-watch 3D movie animations, the making of \u2018Ze Match\u2019 makes a big statement of how Rwandan filmmakers dream of seeing their films making the A-list of world\u2019s animation movies sooner or later.<\/p>\n

The 60-minute movie series is a production of IT Simplified, a technology company that deals with IT solutions and other services related to technology.<\/p>\n

Filmmakers who attended \u2018Ze Match\u2019 movie premiere described the movie as a game-changer for the local film industry that is not used to 3D animation movies. It also brings diversity and a new taste for the audience, especially kids.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe thought about our kids. If our kids are always excited to watch Spiderman, Batman\u2026all these superheroes around the world, why can\u2019t we bring a Rwandan superhero to their screens?\u201d wondered Rodrigue Baributsa, the movie director.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe thought about creating our own superhero for our own kids and even for neighbouring countries,\u201d he says. Baributsa says they wanted to bring something new to Rwandan film enthusiasts and give the movie a Rwandan concept that involves local characters.<\/p>\n

\u201cI believe that there are a lot of people out there that can do better than us but maybe they don\u2019t have that power or strategy to do it the way we are doing it right now,\u201d he adds.<\/p>\n

For a company that deals with IT Solutions, the idea to produce a movie which involves technological creativity came naturally. They just needed to find the right characters for the right theme of the movie.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe idea came and I was like \u2018okay we have gaming machines, I have beautiful machines that can animate this thing\u2026why can\u2019t I find someone who can animate it?\u2019 I got the right people to help me animate the movie and here we are,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

\u2018Ze Match\u2019 is a full season of four episodes and each episode takes at least 15 minutes. It is played in Kinyarwanda. The superhero in the movie is Joseph Rutungura, while renowned actor Daniel Gaga also features in the film as the villain.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe tried to cast some famous actors like Gaga so that people can be more interested to watch a movie that features characters that they know,\u201d Baributsa explains.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe decided to work with Gaga and have him in the movie as the bad guy because he is used to similar roles in previous movies that he\u2019s acted in,\u201d he adds. The movie is built around the story of a group of bad guys who are used to fighting and stealing money from betting.<\/p>\n

A superhero gets involved when he sees the gang chasing a person who won a lot of money. He rescues the person and chases the gang from the betting place and peace is restored.<\/p>\n

According to Baributsa, \u2018Ze Match\u2019 intends to teach kids about peace and love just like the superhero in the movie. \u201cWe just felt we can do something not only to entertain but also teach our kids that they have to help each other, love each other and be there for each other,\u201d he explains.<\/p>\n

The movie marks the beginning of production of more 3D animated movies. Producers say that they have many stories in store for kids and adults. They are, for instance, working on a new 3D animated movie that could be released around the festive season. The movie will be on the market next month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
