From Struggling Architecture Student To An Award-Winning Filmmaker | Adesola Oni | Ep 21
In Episode 21 of The Hungry Creative Podcast, we sit with filmmaker and screenwriter Adesola Oni (aka Ghost) to explore his journey as a filmmaker, the transition from architecture to film, and the challenges of navigating rejection in the creative industry.
Adesola shares insights on storytelling, the difference between film and video, the importance of community and collaboration, and the art of filmmaking. We also discuss the evolving landscape of creative expression, particularly in the context of cultural differences and the integration of AI in modern filmmaking.
