Caroline Locke is a 21-year-old filmmaker, sailing coach, and kiteboarder from Fort Pierce, Florida, whose love for storytelling and adventure is deeply rooted in her experiences on the water. Growing up racing small dinghies and later competing on Olympic Formula Kite racing equipment, she developed a strong appreciation for resilience, nature, and human connection.
Currently pursuing a BFA in Cinema Studies and Moving Image Arts at the University of Colorado Boulder, Caroline is inspired by the strange and cinematic, drawing influence from filmmakers like Nicolas Roeg, Adam Elliot, and Chantal Akerman. Her work explores emotional, technological, and environmental themes, delving into the weird, wonderful, oddities, and even extraterrestrials.
Her short film The Birth has garnered over 2.6 million views on YouTube, showcasing her unique ability to captivate audiences with eccentric and thought-provoking storytelling. Caroline’s ultimate dream is to live on a sailboat, crafting films that inspire connection, change, and wackiness while celebrating life’s beauty and peculiarities.
