In a rapidly evolving media landscape, community and local radios play a vital role in information dissemination, cultural promotion, and civic engagement. Yet many of these stations face technical and editorial challenges when adapting their content to today’s digital environment. That’s where Bigwi Film Agency steps in—as a strategic and technical partner to African radio stations.

Based in Kigali and active across the continent, Bigwi Film Agency offers expertise in storytelling, audiovisual content production, and multi-platform distribution. We support radio teams at every stage of their digital transformation journey—from editorial planning and production to post-production, sound and visual design, and digital optimization.

Expertise in Storytelling and Transformative Communication

Our approach is rooted in transformational storytelling: we don’t just help inform audiences, we help engage them and spark community-driven change. We assist radio editors in designing more immersive audio formats, built around locally grounded stories that inspire social action. Whether producing youth programs, health-focused segments, or shows on gender equality, our method brings structure, rhythm, and impact.

Podcast Production and Support

As podcasting grows in popularity across Africa, Bigwi Film Agency works closely with radio teams to develop original audio series tailored to mobile listening habits. We provide support throughout the process—topic selection, episode planning, recording, editing, and publishing—on major platforms like Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, and Anchor. With our technical and narrative guidance, community radios can now extend their reach well beyond FM waves.

Support for Online Publishing and Multi-Channel Management

To maximize audience reach, content must be available on the right digital platforms. We train local radio teams in YouTube channel management, publishing across Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and even WhatsApp, while helping them adapt content formats to each platform’s demands. We also offer solutions to create custom mini-websites or podcast hosting platforms, enabling long-term independence and visibility.

A Partner Rooted in Local Realities

Our strength lies in a deep understanding of cultural, linguistic, and social contexts across the continent. Whether in rural or urban areas, francophone or anglophone regions, we co-develop tailored support plans with each radio team. We also operate in post-conflict zones or transitional settings, where the media plays a crucial role in peacebuilding and public dialogue.

At Bigwi Film Agency, we are more than just a service provider—we are a capacity-building partner, working to strengthen community journalism that is engaged, resilient, and digitally connected. By equipping local radios with the tools to thrive in the digital age, we help amplify new voices—better informed, more empowered, and more visible.
