Kevin Sebolao
Kevin Sebolao is a Motswana filmmaker and event organiser. He is the founder of BAO Outdoor Film Nights, an outdoor screening platform showcasing independent films from Botswana and other African countries.[1][2]
Career
Sebolao's work in film exhibition developed from a 2019 fundraising screening he organised after one of his films was selected for the Silicon Valley African Film Festival in the United States. The screening, held in Gaborone, was organised as a "pay what you can" event to raise travel funds.[1]
Sebolao later developed the concept into BAO Outdoor Film Nights, a recurring platform aimed at expanding exhibition opportunities for independent filmmakers in Botswana.[3]
In addition to his work in film events, Sebolao has been credited in film productions. He was among the filmmakers associated with the short film Gobe The Gift, which received the Achievement in Narrative Short award at the Silicon Valley African Film Festival.[4][5]
Sebolao has also been credited as co-director and assistant editor of the film Brother's Keeper.[6]
