Sele Leota Joins Entropico as Full-Time Senior Creative Producer
Entropico, the leading creative studio known for Netflix’s 'ONEFOUR: Against All Odds' (2023), and its innovative award-winning approach to advertising and entertainment storytelling with Google and YouTube, is elated to announce the full-time appointment of Sele Leota as senior creative producer. Sele joins the team after freelancing with Entropico for nearly a year.
Sele boasts a rich background in unscripted television and audio storytelling, bringing a wealth of experience to Entropico. His initial roles at Bunim-Murray Productions saw him contributing to acclaimed series such as MTV’s 'The Real World,' Lifetime Television Network’s 'Project Runway,' and E! Television’s 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians,' including its numerous spin-offs. From 2016 to 2021, Sele served as one of the principal storytellers and key producers for 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians,' overseeing the show's creative and narrative direction and collaborating intimately with both the talent and the network to shape its narrative across multiple seasons.
In addition to his television work, Sele has achieved significant advances in the field of audio storytelling. He co-executive produced 'Being Trans' and 'Being Golden,' two of Lemonada Media's ground-breaking audio reality podcast series that won three Webby Awards in 2023. Collaborating intimately with the cast and network, he developed the series' narrative structure from pre-production to post-production as lead creative on these projects.
Sele is a tremendous asset to the Entropico team, bringing exceptional storytelling prowess and a keen ability to manage both the artistic and operational facets of production. His versatility and creative talent are further evidenced by his leadership in post-production for Netflix's 'Coming Out Colton' at 3/Ball Jeff Jenkins Productions.
"We are delighted to welcome Sele to the Entropico team," stated Harry Hunter, founder of Entropico. "Sele's exceptional creative vision and operational acumen perfectly align with our commitment to producing innovative and engaging content.

Christian Polsinelli, head of alternative and experiential at Entropico, added, "We could not be more excited to welcome Sele to the Entropico team. His creativity, dedication, and collaborative spirit is inspiring and invaluable as we continue to elevate our work and grow our originals slate."
Sele expressed his enthusiasm for joining Entropico full-time, stating, "I'm a storyteller at heart and throughout my career have always tried to pursue projects that push my abilities as a creative producer. I'm excited for the opportunity to contribute my experience to all that Entropico takes on in the future, but also for the chance to challenge myself through new and different types of projects."
Entropico has earned acclaim for its trailblazing projects and dynamic collaborations. Recent notable works include YouTube's 'A Drag Adventure Story,' starring iconic performers and creators Trixie Mattel and Juno Birch; 'Enter the Realm,' a celebration of YouTube’s Tabletop Roleplaying Games Community; and a suite of branding and video assets for Google Marketing Live. Entropico has also won a Webby for its work on 'YouTube Game On: An Interactive Livestream Experience,' and a Telly for its work on the main titles of “The Clearing” for Disney+/Hulu. Currently, the team is working on exciting new projects including more films celebrating YouTube’s communities, and a slew of original content.
