Lindsay Compton

Producer, Writer, Director

Bringing stories to life isn’t just my job; it's my passion and a fundamental part of who I am.

Meet Lindsay.

For as long as I can remember, storytelling has been more than just a hobby—it’s been my life. With a camera in hand, I’ve explored both the real and the imaginative across a wide range of genres. No matter the project, I’m always striving for authenticity and excellence.

Currently studying at Belmont University, I’m dedicated to growing as a filmmaker while specializing in producing. Whether I’m behind the camera or organizing a production, I’m always striving to excel.

Based in Nashville, TN, I’ve had the opportunity to work on numerous projects that push creative boundaries. From commercials to documentaries, I thrive on collaborating with diverse teams to craft compelling narratives that resonate with audiences. My experience spans a variety of genres, allowing me to blend innovation with storytelling while honing my skills in directing, producing, and editing. Each project has deepened my passion for filmmaking and reinforced my commitment to creating impactful content.

My Recent Projects

Threads of Strength: An Anthology

An anthology of immigrant stories featuring families from Haiti, Syria, Afghanistan and Venezuela who have resettled in Nashville. Created my junior year, I had the privilege of executive producing and producing the post side of the entire piece as well as producing and writing the Afghanistan section.

Carlos Partee: Cultivating a Community of Black Businesses

A documentary short written and produced junior year of college on Nashville resident Carlos Partee, the founder of the Nashville Black Market. It highlights the struggles of African Americans running small businesses and how the NBM creates a space for them to thrive in.

Night Train: The Untold Story (Sizzle Reel)

Once the influential host of a groundbreaking show that launched the careers of R&B legends, Noble Blackwell and his legacy have been all but forgotten. This sizzle reel, which is being used to pitch for a feature documentary, uncovers the untold story of his rise, impact, and the forces that erased him from history—while his family fights to keep his memory alive. I directed, wrote, and produced this project.
