All About Film and Media
From a young age, I have always been drawn to the fascinating world of film and media. Whether that be watching it, creating my own short videos, or being able to work on large projects. By middle school, I knew that I wanted to pursue a career in the media. For me, films contain an element of magic - the ability to transport us to another time and place, to bring out emotions and alter perceptions. Media helps one identify and find belonging in the world. As a creative individual, these are some of the aspects that attracted me to get involved in this industry. I’ve had the chance to work in several projects, but am always looking for new opportunities to develop my skill set. Get in touch for additional information about my past work and current projects.
If there’s specific resistance to women making movies, I just choose to ignore that as an obstacle for two reasons: I can’t change my gender, and I refuse to stop making movies.

Hello
My name is Sailor Sorensen
I'm a recent graduate of dual degrees of Media Production and Cinema Studies, Production from the University of Colorado, Boulder! Because of this, I am constantly surrounded by new media. While I was immersed in the classroom, I also look ro find new media on my own - whether that is through YouTube, new movies in theaters, or Snapchat mini stories. One thing I enjoy doing most is trying new things, which my education has allowed me to do. Throughout my classes, I am pushed to try new methods outside of what I am comfortable with. Two of my favorite projects came from pushing myself. I made an introspective, truth-telling piece about myself which showed my moody tone and serious side through media. This piece was simply titled, Me, Sailor Sorensen. My only regret is that I didn't make it longer! My second favorite piece I made my junior year. This piece was an interpretation of what I thought sleep deprivation and anxiety would look like together. It features a playful twist with time and a cliffhanger ending. While these are just two of my projects, I have added much more to my portfolio, each with a small description of why it was made. If you’d like to learn more about my work, interests, or past projects, get in touch today!
As someone who is passionate about filmmaking, I always enjoy receiving advice, learning new techniques, and experimenting with creative ideas on new projects. Have a look at my past experience to learn more about what I’ve worked on, and please get in touch if you’d like more information or for references.​
