Ameyaw Debrah Media has opened a second production studio in Accra, expanding capacity for video, photography and live broadcasting as Ameyaw TV pushes into longer-form original programming.
Founder Ameyaw Debrah said the expansion followed directly from outgrowing the company’s first studio, which he opened in 2022 as part of his 41st birthday celebrations. “It wasn’t long before we outgrew the space,” he said, adding that the team’s productions had grown more ambitious than the original facility could handle. Studio 2 is built as a flexible set that can be reconfigured for different formats rather than a single fixed layout, and it comes equipped with network infrastructure for live production and simultaneous streaming across platforms including YouTube, Facebook, Instagram and TikTok.
The new facility will host Ameyaw TV’s growing slate of original shows while also renting out to external production companies, agencies, corporate brands and independent creators, who can bring their own equipment or use the company’s in-house cameras, lighting and audio gear. Debrah said the goal extended beyond floor space: he wants Studio 2 to function as a shared production hub for Ghana’s wider creator economy, supporting collaborations beyond his own platform.
The launch follows a broader restructuring of Ameyaw TV earlier this year, when the platform split into four niche sub-brands, Reels, DoCU, Sports and Podcasts, aimed at capturing audience segments the main channel’s general entertainment format couldn’t reach as easily. Debrah, who marked 20 years in Ghana’s media industry in February after starting out as a blogger in 2005, said Studio 2 will support an expanded content lineup including documentaries, travel shows, business conversations and home improvement programming, alongside the entertainment and lifestyle coverage the platform has built its reputation on since launching in 2018.
