Nigeria’s in-camera visual effects market is set to grow at a CAGR of approximately 8.4%, driven by the rise of Nollywood as one of the world’s largest film industries by volume. The main driver is the growing demand for high-quality visual storytelling that can meet global streaming platform standards, prompting early-stage adoption of virtual production techniques. Restraints include limited infrastructure, high technology costs, and a shortage of trained professionals in real-time rendering and LED stage operations. Nonetheless, the country offers significant growth potential through public-private partnerships, increasing access to digital media education, and interest from international investors in Africa’s creative sector. A key trend in Nigeria is the experimentation with hybrid production models that combine traditional storytelling with real-time VFX to enhance local content without relying heavily on post-production.
