About Parlance
Parlance tells the stories of the world's most interesting builders and tastemakers.
Parlance is a documentary series about the people and work you should be paying attention to — before everyone else is. People whose taste and craft are shaping what comes next, given the editorial treatment their stories deserve.
Each episode is a short film built around a single subject: their craft, their environment, their hands doing the actual work. The subject's voice runs over the thing they've built. The format is best described as a magazine you can watch.
The subjects aren't the ones you've already heard of. They're the ones you'll hear about next — whether they've been building for twenty years or two.
Founder · Chief Storytelling Officer
Eric King is the founder and Chief Storytelling Officer of Parlance. He spent the majority of his career in the heart of Silicon Valley building strategy, products, and teams at Meta and Netflix — then built Parlance because the stories he wanted to watch didn't exist yet. The people shaping what comes next, covered with the seriousness and quality usually reserved for those who've already arrived.
