Natalie Lauren
https://www.natalielauren.uk/filmmaker
Wednesday 1st October, 15:30
Online

Natalie Lauren is an actor, writer and director based in London. In 2024 she won the pitch prize at The Chiswick Film Festival and as part of the prize shot an original short film, Fractured Frame, in our Studio at Richmond. The film is currently being screened at numerous international film festivals. A trailer for the film can be found here. Fractured Frame is a surreal and psychological micro-short that centres on the mental experience of dissociation, with many more layers about women, performance, identity, and gendered power.

Natalie’s talk will focus on the development and production of this short film and her wider professional journey as a filmmaker.
