Oré Sofola

Creating has always been my passion, ever since the early days of paper-mâché projects and painting classes in elementary school. Art, in all its forms, has been my way of connecting with the world and telling stories that resonate.

My journey began with photography at 16, capturing candid moments and seeing beauty where others might not. This love for visual storytelling naturally evolved into video production, where I discovered the endless ways a story could be shaped and shared. Today, I’m fortunate enough to tell stories for a living—a craft that never feels like work because it’s what I truly love to do.

Over the past decade, I’ve had the privilege of telling stories across various mediums and industries. From directing films and working as a freelance photographer in the entertainment industry to leading brand and creative teams for top tech companies across Africa and North America, my career has been a diverse and fulfilling journey. Currently, I serve as a Creative Account Director at Mediafly, where I help scale sales enablement teams for major U.S. companies like USPS, Nestle, and Moen through creative and design consulting.

When I’m not immersed in my work at Mediafly, I run my own production company, creating film and photography content for independent brands. I also offer media consulting services to personal and commercial brands eager to connect more deeply with their audiences.

When I’m not working, you’ll likely find me indulging in period dramas, as I often imagine I lived in a simpler time, perhaps the 1950s, where the charm of the past captivates me just as much as the art I create today.
