My name is Lindsay Thompson and I was born in Goldsboro, North Carolina. I spent my early years performing in a handful of stage productions along with studying martial arts and stage combat. I spent nearly two decades performing as a musician at various venues throughout the country, including the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio.
I am now a working creative professional in the fields of graphic design, photography, and film/video production as well as a repertory player for The Idiot Boxers, the in-house improv comedy troupe at The Idiot Box Comedy Club in Greensboro, North Carolina.
In 2009, I began competing in the sport of canine disc with my dogs which spurred my filmmaking desires. I began production on my first feature-length dog-umentary in 2012 and released Fly High; Story of the Disc Dog in May of 2019. Fly High; Story of the Disc Dog went on to reach an international audience across 12 countries including New Zealand, Germany, Canada, the United States and Belgium. Fly High was also selected to the Top Dog Film Festival, presented by Adventure Reels, for VOD distribution during the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic.
Over the last decade, I have directed short films including Real State (2016), Scoping Mechanism (2016), operated as a sound technician on the award-winning short film, There Goes Eric (2016), and assisted as Director of Photography on the 2017 film, Ann Wilson; In Focus. I released my latest short film, Artemis, in December of 2022.
I am currently writing, producing and directing a variety of projects including two upcoming projects I've written entitled Atlas Falling (working title) and The Bridges with anticipated release dates in 2023 and 2024.
