About me – Reuben Johnston Films

I was born in Brighton, UK and have lived here my whole life.

I enjoy writing, drawing and learning to play interesting instruments (currently learning the banjo and accordion).

I also (funnily enough) really enjoy working on films both in and outside of my education.

Education

I studied filmmaking at Sussex University, graduating in 2025 with a BA Honours degree.

During this time I’ve learned a lot and achieved a great deal that I’m proud of, from working on many film projects, to placing highly in several competitions for my creative work.

While at university, I was fortunate enough to meet my partner, Vini (on the right, image taken on my graduation day).

What am I doing now?

I am currently working on several scripts, from short stories to a feature length film.

I am also planning upcoming creative projects, and continuing to find interesting instruments to learn to play.

I look forward to updating this website with more examples of my work.
