Stink Films Signs Director Lauren Caris Cohan

With the launch of 'Lost Angeles,' a film for AG Jeans starring the British fashion icon Alexa Chung, Stink Films has announced the signing of Lauren Caris Cohan for global representation.

New York born and bred, Cohan is a writer, director and creative director who specialises in emotional, visceral, and deeply personal storytelling.

Lauren started her career as the artistic director at clothing retailer Free People - it was here that she spearheaded both their internal creative team and branded-content initiate to create FP Presents: an online narrative film program telling elevated and evocative narrative stories.

Cohan's first film series ‘Roshambo’, starring Christopher Abbott, was met with success - the short film trilogy received over one million views across YouTube and Vimeo. Cohan's branded films have since been Staff Picked by Vimeo on multiple occasions.

Cohan's tenure with Free People gave her the opportunity to travel the globe and has shaped her unique, occasionally humorous, yet always emotionally aware storytelling style. She is currently in development with Imagine Entertainment, 21st Century Fox and Hulu on a TV series based on her Vimeo Staff Pick of the Month short film entitled ‘Dream Girl’.

Jeff Baron, Managing Director of Stink Films said: “Lauren is a strong and independent director who has forged a unique and sensitive style of directing. She has an ability to recognise and reproduce true human sentiment in her work.”

Lauren Caris Cohan, Director said: “I'm so excited to be joining a roster comprised of such inspiring and innovative storytellers. The Stink network is filled with amazingly talented forward thinkers - I'm honoured to be a part of it and can't wait to get started."
