Jill Narciso is an award-winning queer writer/director from Houston who likes to create horror films with a twist. 

​

She typically draws from her own life experiences for inspiration, whether it’s getting the creeps in a public bathroom, staring down antique dolls at thrift stores, or ignoring obvious signs of being haunted. Jill is known for her award-winning short films, Dolls, Swish, and Fixation, which has been screened at various film festivals around the country. Her other work can be streamed through various channels on Apple TV and Roku. When not writing or directing, she is helping out on set as a 1st AD. 

​

Jill is also a featured filmmaker in the digital-media company Boyish Media, a mentee for the Unlock Her Potential Mentorship Program, the Women of Color Filmmakers (WOCF) 201 Directors Program, the WOCF Filmmaking Lab, Women of Color Unite’s #Startwith8Hollywood program, and a fellow in FilmNorth's Pilot Lab: Inclusive & Socially Conscious Filmmaking.

​

As a director, Jill loves including as many LGBTQ+ or BIPOCs in front of and behind the camera to inspire those still afraid to live out their dreams. 

​

She currently lives in Orange County with her fiancée, and from time to time they like to sneak away to Mexico.
