Kayla L.

I am dedicated to the art of storytelling with the technical skills to back it up. Over my 7-year career, I have been involved in each step of the production process. I have a fine-tuned insight to guide a video through each production step and into to a successful, engaging video. I can efficiently identify and execute the needs of each project while adhering to a client's brand. I am focused and passionate, whether it is working with a team to produce a video concept, behind the camera as a cinematographer, or using my eye for detail to complete a quality edit. My work can be found at kmlacour.com. As an editor, I know how to guide what was collected during filming into a successful, engaging video. My passion for cinematography propels me to go above and beyond whether it is creating a shot list or pushing myself to get the best shot during long shoot days. In every role, I encourage my crew mates to find the best solutions and enjoy moments when we execute successfully. I worked as a Video Producer at Wired.com from November 2015 - November 2018. I have provided my cinematography and video editing skills to companies like Confluent, Meta and the Kronos Quartet over the last 4 years. My editing rate is $65/hr. My cinematography rate begins at $400/half day, depending on the size, scope and equipment needs.
