Anthony Gitau
@anthonygitau
I create bilingual film, television, and digital content while advancing AI data quality.
KenyaWhat I'm looking for
I've written, directed, and produced film, television, and digital content through Teenex Productions since 2016, overseeing work from scripting and field recording through audio post-production and delivery. I led the independent feature The Kid Was Mine from concept through production.
For DStv Maisha Magic Plus, I contributed scripting and direction for Lulu and Zari, working on bilingual English-Swahili drama for East African audiences. I also create Roblox/Brookhaven Shorts for AK Gaming KE and bilingual educational content for children through Jifunze na Furaha.
Alongside creative production, I deliver AI data annotation, labeling, RLHF evaluation, transcription, translation, localization, and language tutoring. As a native-fluent English, Swahili, and Gikuyu speaker, I bring East African language and cultural judgment to remote projects.
