Cameran Surles is a producer, writer, actor living in Los Angeles. We had the most wonderful time hearing about her entrance into the film business, her current projects, and what makes her keep pressing forward creatively. She got her start working on Terrence Mallick's Tree of Life. Soon after, she met another director great James L. Brooks who wrote a part for her in his next film. These experiences instilled in her a deep and enduring love of flawed, complex characters and stories that find the comedy in spite of the tragedies of life. She went on to appear in numerous network TV shows, indie film and award-winning theater.

Cameran got her start in writing at UCLA's Professional Program in screenwriting. Her writing accolades include projects advancing in Sundance New Media Labs, Imagine Impact, Napa Valley FF, Cinestory, NYTVF, among others. She is also a member of the Creative Network (from Ron Howard and Brian Grazer’s Imagine Impact) and has completed courses in writing and directing through Sundance Co//ab.

She currently works as a creative producer and head of development for former head of Paramount Adam Goodman’s digital studio Invisible Narratives. Since 2020, she has produced two feature films, and is prepping a third: SONGBIRD (starring Demi Moore, Bradley Whitford, Paul Walter Hauser, producer Michael Bay), CRIMSON (director Greg Plotkin), and TIME TRIPPER (upcoming, starring Craig Robinson, Vivica Fox, director Tim van Dammen). She developed and EP'd the HBO Max pilot “Camp Friends” based on her original idea.
