A Note From Laurie: What’s in a Name? 

As I see it, perspective = storytelling. 

At its core, filmmaking is the act of giving vision and sound to our ideas.

Because of this, if I am to create meaningful and authentic work, I need to understand how I see the world and, most importantly, why I see the world the way I do.

I treasure this approach and believe it’s important to hold this concept close as I produce media so that I can be an aware and intentional filmmaker.

In the 1980s and 1990s, I grew up with a passion for playing baseball. Thanks to many who came before me, I was able to play second base throughout my childhood and teen years. Playing on “boys” teams in the wake of the passage of Title IX required me to move back and forth between male and female-coded spaces–something that was out of the ordinary for this time and place. My experience both forced me and allowed me to live in the cultural nuances and subtext of human interaction uniquely.

The countless hours I spent on the baseball diamond shaped what I see in the world, how I see the world, and, in my opinion, the most important point – from where I see the world. 

It’s my lens.  

As a filmmaker, knowing my lens makes me a better, more authentic storyteller. It helps empower me to be able to see my clients’ authentic story and give voice to their lens. 

I carry these lessons about honoring and understanding perspective with me. It may have been decades since I last fielded a ground ball, but I still see the world from the Middle Infield. 

Middle Infield Films will help you slide into those cultural subtextual places to tell your story in an empowered and creative way. 

Let’s tell stories together!
