Rebs Fisher-Jackson

Rebs Fisher-Jackson (she/her) is a British writer, director, and script supervisor based in LA. She’s been a BAFTA Connect member since 2023.

Starting out as a locations trainee on interactive films in Cardiff, Rebs worked her way up in the production office before training as a script supervisor with Screen Alliance Wales. She’s subsequently worked on over 21 productions across formats and genres for the likes of Lucasfilm, the BBC, and Paramount. It was on set that she really felt the pull to follow her teenage dream of writing her own stories for the screen, and she produced her first short film – Best Student – with BFI Film Academy funding in 2022. Since then, Rebs has produced six award-winning shorts that have screened across the world, from Zanzibar to the TCL Chinese Theater in Hollywood, and she obtained her first broadcast directing credit with Live After Death which screened on the BBC in December 2023.

Named one of the ‘Next Generation of LGBTQ+ Filmmakers in Wales’ by the Iris Prize, Rebs specializes in telling LGBTQ+ and women-led coming-of-age stories in both American and British arenas. Rebs is passionate about using her voice to diversify the film industry, both on-screen and behind the lens. With a love for both British telly and American shows, she is a globally-minded filmmaker that writes stories that audiences can relate to on both sides of the pond.

Rebs is currently entering the second year of her MFA in Film and Television – Screenwriting (Television Track) at UCLA’s prestigious TFT film school. At present, Rebs is actively working towards bringing her first pilot to the screen.
