Long before his foray into the Yoruba movie industry, Adeoti liked filmmaking and entertainment. So he studied the business models of prominent Yoruba movie marketers, Wasiu Afolayan, Chairman of Wasai Film, and Kazeem Afolayan of Epsalum Production.

In 2005, he registered his outfit, Adekaz Production Limited, and shot his first film ‘Ona Laafin’ produced by Jaiye Kuti, a year later.
