MY Portfolio

My name is Harry Parker; I am passionate about working in the film industry, specifically in the area of screenwriting, due to my enthusiasm for the creative process of filmmaking. I was diagnosed at a very young age with a genetic metabolic condition, which sits on a spectrum of disorders, known as Peroxisomal Biogenesis Disorders, and affects 1 in 50,000 people.  This affects me in many ways, but the main symptoms that impact my daily life include deafness and visual impairment. Those more severely affected do not live past childhood. Remarkably, I’m an adult now due to having a relatively mild form of the condition. Living with this disorder has given me a unique perspective on life and influenced my creative process in filmmaking, especially screenwriting.

I like to write in a wide range of genres and narrative structures. The main genres I love to write about are horror, fantasy, and drama; I focus on character-driven narratives and visual storytelling. I write because I have a passion for the creative process of filmmaking and telling stories about people.
