Aysha Scott, from Deptford, South London, is an independent filmmaker and Founder of Filmmaking Planner. She began her career in 2005 after training at the Anna Scher Theatre School. With over twenty years of experience across film, TV, and theatre, Aysha has excelled in acting, directing, writing, producing, editing, and casting. In 2014, she earned a BA (Hons) Creative Writing Degree from South Bank University, receiving the Course Directors Prize for scriptwriting. Her work is now studied at the university.

Post-graduation, Aysha's theatre piece 'Unspoken' was commissioned and showcased for nine nights. She founded A-Scott Productions to support her films. Her first indie feature, 'Residential,' premiered at the British Urban Film Festival in 2016, earning two award nominations. Aysha also completed a Directors Certificate at Raindance.

In 2017, she wrote and produced the award-winning short 'It Still Hurts,' which won Best International Short at the Validate Yourself Film Festival in New York. She was awarded a Women in TV and Film membership and was mentored by Nicola Lees.

Aysha produced the multi-award-winning 'Voice of Reason,' in 2018 and made her directorial debut with 'Dismissed,' which has over 1.1 million views on her own YouTube channel and was selected for 12 festivals, and is available on several streaming platforms, including Amazon Prime, Apple TV, and Bohemia.
