How Laurel Parmet went from Staff Picks to feature films

"I am aware that everybody tells me"Just go for it. Go ahead and make the film.' However, it's not the case," she adds. "Self-doubt is huge and it's more of a drain on your energy. This is the time that you are contemplating, "Oh, I can't accomplish this, and I'm not ever going to be successful.' There's a chance you're thinking this is the way to think, and you could employ it in the process of creating." We were able to talk with Laurel to find out more about her process and her development as a creative. Read the full interview.

   What's your favorite piece of advice you've received?  

Lauren: I think the best advice I've ever gotten is to, whenever in doubt, look back at the things that are interesting and important for me as an author. You can easily become entangled with the industry and, eventually, at the conclusion the day I'm in this business because I am passionate about writing stories, and that's sort of my North star.

   Where do you get the inspiration you need?  

Lauren Lauren draw inspiration for my writing from places. When I write something I write, it is very beneficial to stay in the area regardless of where the film's set. The next one I'm writing, I'm planning to put it on the Oregon coast since I visited there and just fell in love and was like, "I need to write an film for this area."

 What did you think when you stepped onto the set for the first time?

Laurel This was an very long and complicated procedure to reach that. Writing the script, getting the script to a satisfactory degree, finding funds and then forming your team. It should take a longer period of time because good things take a long duration and quality scripts need longer to write I would say.

The first day on the set of "The Starling Girl," I was under the impression that I'd be anxious and think I didn't know how to proceed, but I must say that it was an absolute blast and I was so relaxed and was confident that this is the thing I was meant to do. The way I felt was like riding the bicycle. I re-entered the job really quickly and liked the experience.

What keeps you motivated?

Laurel in the beginning, it's about what I do. I enjoy being on stage and I'm a fan of where to be. So, just having that image in my head of "Oh I'll appear." I think is what keeps me focused. In addition, I'm an advocate of collaboration. I'm always looking forward to being capable of creating things that I can share with friends. It's great fun.

The Laurel  The Laurel: Staff Picks This was a common goal while I was making short films and participating in festival events. It feels like you're being acknowledged by people who are awed by the work you do. You're embraced by the people that so many filmmakers have an appreciation for.

   What tools do you employ within your job?  

Laurel : I utilize it to do everything. Recently, we utilized the platform while we cut "The Starling Girl," posting edits and uploading them to all the world. It's by far the most high-quality streaming platform I've seen, and this is the one I use.
