Hi, I’m Laura Stratford, a London based writer and director working in film, archive and online content. I also help to elevate brands through digital marketing and partnerships.

In 2016, I assisted David M. Thompson on the BBC documentary The Ballet Master: Sir Peter Wright at 90.

In 2018, I hosted a screening of my documentary film Lady Lovely Lute at Rio Cinema which was profiled by the Ham & High and Hackney Citizen.

In 2021, I interviewed Sammy Differ and Lucy Brydon for Film London’s Beyond The Frame podcast series.

In 2022, I shot an In Conversation for We Are Parable promoting the Netflix Documentary Talent Fund.

I’ve written for online sites like Boundless Theatre and Stock Footage Online. I can also curate, produce and moderate film industry events. Here’s me hosting The Pitching Show at London Short Film Festival 2024.

Since 2016 I’ve worked as the Digital Archive Manager at Open Media and produced video content which has led to over 4,000 YouTube subscribers and one million views on TikTok. In 2024, I began working with Girls on Tops as their Head of Operations & Partnerships.
