WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING

Ebuka Njoku- Executive Film ProducerIn preparation for the funding phase of my upcoming film project, I had the privilege of engaging in an in-depth advisory session with Ololade of Starfield Advisory. Our discussion centered on critical aspects of film financing and the broader business dynamics of the entertainment industry, and it proved to be an exceptionally insightful experience.While I have previously produced films, our strategy session provided a more structured and comprehensive understanding of areas that are often overlooked, particularly in relation to financing strategies, the commercial realities of storytelling, and the legal framework surrounding copyright.

Ayobami Aladeloye - Co- founder Filmporte.She demonstrates a strong and nuanced understanding of the business of film finance, including the relevant structures, frameworks, and innovative strategies for capital raising. Our strategy session was particularly insightful, as it focused on identifying emerging trends within the industry and exploring modern, non-traditional funding models. In addition, she provided valuable perspectives on aligning funding approaches with investor expectations—particularly in relation to return on investment (ROI), risk considerations, and value creation.

Saliu Momoh, Founder Top Charts Africa.My session with Ololade of Starfield Advisory was incredibly impactful and honestly transformative for me and my team.What stood out immediately was how intentional and thorough she was. She didn’t just listen at a surface level or give generic advice. She took her time to really understand what we’re building, then broke things down with clear, specific insights that highlighted both our strengths and the gaps we needed to address.Since that conversation, my perspective has genuinely shifted. I’m now thinking more strategically about structure, execution, and what it actually takes to scale this into a serious, global product.Overall, it was definitely a defining meeting. The kind that sharpens your thinking and changes how you move.

Onah Uzonwanne - Talent and Partnerships ManagerThe advisory session provided valuable clarity on the grant application process, outlining both the requirements and the strategic steps I need to take as a business owner. It offered practical insights that have strengthened my understanding and preparedness, leaving me better equipped to approach the application with confidence and precision.

Ishtiaq Rabbani CEO, Rahasia Studios. (Pakistan)Following an insightful initial introduction, we had the opportunity to engage in a productive session where several innovative ideas were explored and key first points of contact were established to facilitate future collaboration. A key highlight of the session was Lolade’s in-depth contribution on the critical importance of film packaging, particularly within the context of high-end animation projects. She provided valuable insights into the African distribution landscape, emphasizing the growing significance of structured pre-sale strategies and the need for well-articulated distribution frameworks to ensure commercial viability and global competitiveness.Furthermore, she underscored the foundational role of strong storytelling elements, including a compelling script, a well-developed pitch deck, and cohesive narrative architecture, as essential tools for attracting investment, securing partnerships, and positioning projects effectively in both local and international markets.
