Get to
know me.

Hey, I’m Tomisin! A filmmaker based in Lagos who loves telling stories and bringing random ideas to life.

I’ve been doing this for about three years, and I’m still figuring things out, experimenting, and finding new ways to tell stories.

I love music, humour, sports, fashion, people, and everything that comes with being human. The emotions, the connections, the little moments we sometimes overlook.

I like to think I’ve got a pretty good eye for creative direction, and I’m always looking for opportunities to put that to work and see how far I can take an idea.

I love a weird idea, a unique idea, something nobody’s tried before, or something that’s been done a hundred times but we can find our own way of doing it.

Got an idea you’re not even sure is an idea yet? Let’s talk and get to work.

Have a story in mind?
