Filmmaking background.
Laurie’s career began when she earned her BFA in Film Production from NYU Tisch School of the Arts, where she stood out as one of the few women in the program at the time – a significant milestone that proved her tenacity and ability to break barriers.
She freelanced as a Production Coordinator and Script Supervisor before working at two video companies where she oversaw productions for VH-1, Clairol, Bank of America and The Gap. She was also the Post-Production Manager for the Myst Riven video game.
Laurie has directed and produced, or co-produced, internationally well-received short films and music videos. She also wrote, produced, directed and edited three short “audio movies” in the Anti-Heroine podcast series.
