Meet Indiana Lormont | Film Producer

We had the good fortune of connecting with Indiana Lormont and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Indiana, how do you think about risk?
I see risk not as something to be avoided, but as something to be managed and embraced when the potential for growth outweighs the fear of uncertainty. One of the most defining risks I took was moving from France to the United States for college. I was leaving behind everything familiar: family, language, culture, to study in a place where I knew no one and had to completely rebuild my support system from scratch.

That decision changed the trajectory of my life. It pushed me to become more independent, adaptable, and open to new perspectives. I wasn’t just learning in the classroom: I was constantly learning from the people around me, from being outside of my comfort zone, and from navigating a completely different environment.

Years later, after building a life and career in the U.S., I made another big leap: moving back to France to work on the Olympic Games. On paper, it might have looked like a full-circle moment, but emotionally and professionally, it was a new chapter. I was returning home, but I had changed. It meant adapting again, this time not as a student, but as a professional bringing international experience to one of the most high-profile events in the world. It was a risk to leave the stability I had built in the U.S., but it was also an opportunity to contribute to something meaningful on a global scale.

Both decisions came with uncertainty. But they also came with immense growth. I’ve learned that taking smart, calculated risks can be the catalyst for transformation. Each one has shaped my career, expanded my worldview, and helped me become more resilient.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
What sets me apart is that I bring a cross-cultural perspective and a deep commitment to collaboration to everything I do. As a film producer, I’m still early in my career, but I’ve already had to navigate a lot of change and uncertainty. That journey required adaptability, courage, and the ability to build connections quickly in new environments, qualities that are now at the core of how I work in film.

Getting to where I am professionally hasn’t been easy. Breaking into the film industry is notoriously tough, especially when you’re trying to build your own voice while learning the ropes. There were moments when it felt like I was doing everything behind the scenes, with little clarity on how to move forward. But I kept showing up on sets, on long production days, in editors’ rooms, because I genuinely love the process of bringing stories to life. And I’ve learned that consistency, curiosity, and kindness go a long way in an industry that thrives on relationships.

I’m most proud of the projects I’ve been part of that reflect a strong sense of purpose and intentionality. I care deeply about stories that feel grounded, human, and visually compelling. I want my work to reflect that balance between thoughtful storytelling and bold creative choices.

What I want the world to know about me is that I’m building something with long-term vision. I may be early in the journey, but I take each opportunity seriously. I’m here to listen, learn, collaborate, and tell stories that matter with people who care about the craft as much as I do.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
My favorite neighborhood in LA is Silverlake/Los Feliz, so i would definitely take them there. I love all the small businesses like bookshops, coffeeshops, boutiques and thrift shops, and visiting them is how I like to spend my days off. I would go to Homestate for a nice taco and Bacari for good drink and tapas, and go to the Vista for a late night showing.

As a European, I love walking around and just sightseeing in general, so i would bring them to Griffith Park for a nice stroll. I like the peaceful, yet busy, paths there. In France, our community spaces are cafes but here, in place of terraces, hikes and nature weave together a community of their own.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I’d love to give a shoutout to my friend and former roommate, Reese Givens. She’s not only an incredibly talented scriptwriter and assistant in the film industry, but also someone who’s had a real impact on my personal and creative growth.

Living with Reese was like being surrounded by a constant flow of ideas, inspiration, and thoughtful conversations. She challenged me to see things from new perspectives, to take my creative work to the next level, and to stay grounded even when things felt uncertain. Reese has this rare ability to be both deeply empathetic and relentlessly driven and that energy pushed me to level up in ways I didn’t even realize I needed.

A lot of my growth, both personally and professionally, has been shaped by the environment we built together during that time. I’m really grateful for her friendship, her support, and the example she sets every day in an industry that can be incredibly tough.
