Parker Schmidt
Parker is a former professional downhill skateboarder with a foundation in art and design studies from Berlin, Parker Schmidt channels the thrill and precision of his past into his work as a director. Now based in Los Angeles, he creates striking, intimate narratives that elevate everyday moments through impressionistic imagery. His directing spans automotive, fashion, and sports commercials, where he brings a unique blend of artistry and high-adrenaline energy.
Schmidt’s journey has been shaped by global experiences and creative passions outside of film, including ceramics, surfing, running, and baking. Always seeking out alpine lakes, surf breaks, or remote trails—preferably reached by off-roading—he infuses each project with a spirit of discovery and ambition, pushing every story to new heights.
