Framing The Future
Akintaya 'Tayo' Adewole
Virtual Production Filmmaker | Unreal Silver Authorized Instructor Partner
Step inside the creative mind of Akintayo Adewole, a multidisciplinary filmmaker, composer, and technologist with over 20 years of experience in AV systems and storytelling. As founder of DRKR PXLS and an Epic Games Animation Fellow, Tayo blends Unreal Engine with traditional techniques to craft cinematic worlds, build tools for virtual cinematographers, and develop immersive experiences, from original animated IPs to UEFN games for Snoop Dogg.
Akintayo ‘Tayo’ Adewole is a rare kind of creative, someone who lives equally in the technical and the emotional.
From designing real-time cinematography tools and shooting breathtaking visuals, to composing music for live events and building games for cultural icons, Tayo’s work is as layered and intentional as the frames he composes.
Today’s session is more than a tutorial. It’s a masterclass in creative ownership — how to take control of your toolkit, your process, and most importantly, your voice.
So if you’ve ever wondered how to bridge the gap between traditional cinematography and cutting-edge virtual production — or if you’re ready to create with purpose and precision — you’re exactly where you need to be.
