This project delves into the golden era of Ilorin's Sobi FM, a historic radio station that shaped the city's music and cultural identity. Through archival footage, interviews with veteran DJs and musicians, and modern reimaginings, we'll create a series of short-form content pieces that celebrate the station's legacy. The videos will mix nostalgic visuals with contemporary editing to appeal to both older generations who remember the station and younger audiences discovering it for the first time. We'll film at the actual station site, local music spots like the Ilorin Cultural Centre, and in homes where families still listen to radio broadcasts. The unique angle lies in contrasting the analog past with digital present—using 2025 trends like vertical video, kinetic typography, and retro filters to tell a story that feels both timeless and urgent. This is a chance to preserve Ilorin's media history while showcasing modern storytelling skills.
