This blog offers a behind-the-scenes look at ROFFEKE. ROFFEKE is pronounced "rafiki" which is a Swahili word meaning "friend". 'Friendship, Fun, Freedom' is the motto of the ROck 'n' ROll Film FEstival, KEnya. The mission of ROFFEKE is to promote rock music in Kenya by dispelling rock 'n' roll myths and misconceptions via the medium of film. The Purpose of ROFFEKE is "Lighten the Burden".

Jozie's logo
"Friendship, fun, freedom" is ROFFEKE's motto. I think my idea for the film festival logo is a bit militant. Oh ok, a lot militant:-) I think Jozie's logo idea is much better than mine, more in line with ROFFEKE's motto.

Thanks a million Got Jenn!
Got Jenn really helped me out by sending me a link that contained almost everything I needed to know about organizing a film festival (http://www.bfi.org.uk/filmtvinfo/publications/practical/howto/started.html)
She’s saved me a lot of research time so I can now move on to the next stage of the planning process.
Thanks a million Got Jenn!

Maasai shield and two crisscrossing electric guitars?
Message posted on Kenya Rocks
So here's a new idea for the logo: On the Kenyan flag there is a Maasai shield and two crisscrossing spears which represents the defense of freedom. How about instead of the spears, there are two crisscrossing electric guitars?:-) It will be like saying 'The Kenyan rock fans defend their freedom to listen to rock by using rock as a weapon':-)
Again, I'm no artist so I don't even know if it is possible to produce this idea on paper but I leave it to the artists of Kenya Rocks to prove me wrong...or right:-)

Logo for rock film festival
Message I posted on Kenya Rocks:
Calling all those who, unlike me, are NOT artistically challenged:-) A logo is needed for the rock film festival. Think "Kenya" , "Film" and "Rock 'n' roll" Post your ideas on the group and the members will vote on the best logo.
