What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role where I can leverage my media skills to create impactful content and drive brand growth.

My name is Joyce Manyefo, and I am a dedicated media consultant with a focus on screen-writing, radio content production, and digital marketing. My mission is to leverage various media tools and platforms to enhance brand visibility and engagement. In 2023, I honed my skills in film screen-writing, directing, and marketing, recognizing the power of film as a medium for education and communication. I believe that effective messaging is crucial for brands to connect with their audiences and attract new ones.

Throughout my career, I have successfully produced content across multiple platforms, including radio, television, and digital media. My experience includes continuity writing for short films featured on the South African Broadcasting Corporation and collaborating with organizations like Leaders In Motion Academy to raise awareness on critical issues such as gender-based violence. I also have a strong background in graphic design and event planning, which complements my media consultancy work. I am passionate about using my skills to inform and inspire through storytelling and creative content.
