Last year at the beginning of the pandemic, I had the opportunity to chat with Director Bola Ogun. She shares her amazing journey and sacrifices to reach her dreams to be a filmmaker. Since our interview, Bola has gone on to direct on even more television shows.    After her episodic directorial debut on QUEEN SUGAR, Bola Ogun, directed episodes of LEGACIES, SIREN, LUCIFER, GOD FRIENDED ME, WALKER, RAISING DION and David E. Kelley’s new Disney + show BIG SHOT. Her short Are We Good Parents? premiered at SXSW. She’s also an alum of the Ryan Murphy Half Initiative, the WeForShe DirectHer Program, AFI’s Directing Workshop for Women and the WB Directors’ Workshop. Additionally, she was selected for Robert Rodriguez’s Rebel Without a Crew program, writing, directing, and producing the feature On the Run for $7,000.    Ogun honed her strong filmmaking skills and knowledge by working in the production department for 8 years on notable projects such as “The Dark Knight Rises,” “Neighbors,” “Battleship,” “True Detective,” and “Friday Night Lights.” Which led her to produce the Emmy campaign music video for “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend”, Vanity Fair’s viral video “Ladyboss” and four Capital Records music videos.   https://www.bolaogunfilms.com/ https://www.imdb.com/name/nm3768241/ https://www.facebook.com/IamBolaOgun https://www.instagram.com/onebolafun/ https://twitter.com/onebolafun
