About
Alexandria Lane is a Screenwriter and Director, with a background in Art Direction. A 7th-generation Texan meets a queer modern feminist - Lane’s culturally clashing background leads to character-driven stories that flip western stereotypes, and an unreasonable obsession with outlaw-country karaoke. Lane chooses to exclusively write from a female-gaze, because the world doesn’t see enough of their better half represented. Lane’s dark comedy pilot, ROE V. MAEVE, was a finalist for the Humanitas New Voices Fellowship and was featured on Coverfly’s Redlist for Top 20 TV Comedies in 2022. Her screenplays have been recognized by the Blacklist, Women in Film, the Sundance Labs, ISA, ScreenCraft, WeScreenplay, Humanitas, Austin Film Festival, the PAGE Awards and Stage 32. Her most recent directing works include festival-favorites A TINDR TRAP, LEATHER DADDY and HOT SHEET MOTEL (Fall 2023).
Lane consistently builds platforms for diversity. In 2018, she founded the creative agency Alpha Female Films, which ran a panel on power in film representation at SXSW 2019. In 2016, Lane created the pop-up art gallery MILK+Cereal, where she curated LGBTQ-inclusive art, performance and film screenings. It was highlighted in Austin’s annual art festival, ‘East Austin Studio Tour’.
