Ademola Falomo
Ademola Falomo studied International Business in the UAE and learned to apply its idiosyncrasies in the field of filmmaking. This is why the Nigerian Filmmaker stands out in the rather saturated industry of filmmaking on the continent.
Ademola is popular for having worked with global brands and the biggest names in the African music scene and in less than a decade of being active including Davido, Mr Eazi, Tems, Boj, Cruel Santino, Nasty C and a long list of others. However, he steals more spotlight for himself for being one of the pioneering and most important people in Nigeria’s Altè scene; having directed the most important films of renowned creators in the scene. And even as Alté – which is Lagos’ underground genre-bending music –continues to own more spaces on the global stage, the cognoscenti continues to do so through Family Inc., his startup company that seeks to aid independent filmmakers alike to better nurse their art.
