Yara Estrada Lowe
Yara Estrada Lowe
Actress, Producer, Director, Writer
Born and raised in East San Jose, California, Yara Estrada Lowe is a young Latina filmmaker. From an extremely early age, she had the passion to work in the entertainment industry, both in front of and behind the camera. She starred in a play when she was four. When she was growing up, she and her friends would re-enact and record commercials and television shows, at her direction.
After graduating high school, she attended San Jose City College, majoring in Theater Arts. But then in 2008, she decided to just do it! She moved to Los Angeles and started working consistently as an extra/featured extra. She joined SAG in 2010.
Then she started working multiple jobs on film sets behind the scenes including script supervisor, first assistant director, and director of over 100 episodes of an internet soap opera. She also studied her craft at PlayHouse West and other acting studios and was mentored by Robert Carnegie and Jeff Goldblum.
In 2016, she wrote a screenplay for a feature length romcom entitled “Epic Love,” and self-funded, produced and starred in the two minute trailer (link here).
In 2021, Yara wrote a feature length erotic thriller / film noir entitled “Demise.” She pulled herself up by her bootstraps to produce and direct the film, with all of the odds against her. “Demise” is being distributed by Gravitas Ventures in North America and is set to be released on streaming platforms including Amazon Prime on February 27th, 2024. Yara Estrada Lowe is the “new kid in town.”
