Hi everyone, today I would like to participate in this challenge of season 30cineatlas60 week 1, organised by @kouba01, where everyone will like to post the beautiful areas to the Steem Atlas map so that people can be aware of the most beautiful places.

I visited Mandate Market, which is located in Ilorin, Nigeria, where different varieties of edible items can be found here. This market is normally visited by the educated people because it's near to them. Most of the products they are selling are at wholesale prices, that's why their products are cheaper. I chose this place for cinematic entry because it's popular in my hometown; even people from far distances come to buy tomatoes, onions, scotch bonnet, plastic rubber, and so on.

They have head market women and men who control the affairs of the market, where they normally do sanitation on every Thursday.

They also have different warehouses where they pack drinks, cartons of biscuits, and bags of rice, which they store in a place for the customers.

Their is also availability of car park for customers who come with their cars so that they can feel comfortable to park their cars at their own convenience. Most of their fresh tomatoes and other peppers were mainly transported here from northern part of the country, because most of their farmers are practicing irrigation method.

The most interesting thing about this market is that it allows negotiations between customers and sellers which will later favor both side. This place matter to me a lot because everything I need can be found here without stressing ourselves because its government own shopping center and it's very large that have good layout where cars and passengers can move from place to another.

I normally feel excited whenever I entered this market and like I told you earlier that most of their product are cheap compared to what I would buy within the community I am living. I always think positively about the market because it's one of the market that's close to me more than any other market that I known. I have never regretted of purchasing food items here because most of there sellers are always friendly.

Evaluation — CineAtlas 60 (Week 1: One Take Intro)

Post: @akareen — “SC-S30 | CineAtlas60 Week 1 — One Take Intro | Mandate Market”


Evaluation Summary (Week 1)

Criteria (Rubric /10)ScoreShort comments
1) Weekly rule respected (One Take + 20–60s + required links) / 32.2 / 3.0YouTube link is provided. In the excerpt, there is no explicit Speem.watch link (only “Posted with Speem” + “IPFS Video”), and “one take / 20–60s” isn’t clearly stated, so not full marks.
2) Story clarity & creativity / 21.4 / 2.0Clear reason for choosing the market (popular, affordable, convenient). Could add a stronger “mood/story” line (what feeling the one-take intro should convey).
3) Video execution (framing, stability, sound clarity) / 21.2 / 2.0Market subject is naturally cinematic (movement, colors, people). But there’s no specific evidence in the text of controlled framing/audio or a standout “moment” in the shot.
4) SteemAtlas pin quality (relevant description + correct location) / 11.0 / 1.0SteemAtlas pin is present with coordinates and location name.
5) Presentation (stills/screenshots, clean structure) / 10.8 / 1.0Good photos and readable structure; could be cleaner with headings + less repetition.
6) Engagement (Shot Breakdown comments on others) / 10.0 / 1.0No links/proof of two Shot Breakdown comments included in the excerpt.

Final Score: 6.6 / 10

General Comment

A solid “first frame” choice: a busy public market is perfect for CineAtlas because it naturally contains motion, color, and real life. The SteemAtlas pin is properly included and the location description is clear. To score higher, make Week 1 compliance unmistakable by placing the direct Speem.watch link next to the YouTube link and explicitly stating “20–60s, one continuous take.” Add a simple cinematic plan (start with an establishing wide shot → move into the tomatoes/onions → end on the car park/market sign) and include two Shot Breakdown comment links for full engagement points.

Upvoted! Thank you for supporting witness @jswit.

Thanks dear friend for your valuable comment, it's a big Market where everyone like to meet in order to purchase most household items in order to enjoy quality life. The don't used scale to weigh tomatoes you are seeing in the picture instead they put them on a bucket where price tag are attached to them.

Manda has captured the hustle and bustle of the market and the general atmosphere very well in a one-take video. Your smooth presentation and the quality of the video are truly commendable. Best of luck to you for the first week of the C-Atlas 60 competition!
