About Jessie Earl
Jessie Earl is best known for her YouTube channel Jessie Gender, where she explores science fiction, pop culture, and politics through a queer and feminist lens for an audience of nearly subscribers. She’s created nonfiction series such as Microsoft Unboxed—a behind-the-scenes documentary series produced by Microsoft—and Press X for Sex, a deep-dive into sex, identity, and intimacy in video games for GameSpot. Her work has appeared on Inverse, GameSpot, The Advocate, Out Magazine, Rotten Tomatoes, Skybound Entertainment, and she contributed to the book Navigating Trans and Complex Gender Identities*.In 2024, she wrote and directed the short film and series proof-of-concept IDENTITEAZE, a sci-fi mystery about discovering who you are inside a near-future corporate dystopia where identity has been turned into product. The film was an official 2024 Webby Awards honorree and stars John DeLancie (Star Trek: The Next Generation), Jasika Nicole (Fringe), Abigail Thorn (Star Wars: The Acolyte, House of the Dragon) and Darius Rose AKA Jackie Cox (Ru Paul’s Drag Race) and is now streaming on Nebula. The following year, she directed an episode of the upcoming 2026 dark anthology series Sub/Liminal, executive produced by Academy Award–winner Dan Jinks (American Beauty, Pushing Daisies). She also produced and assistant-directed Long Away, a trans-focused sci-fi time travel film by Star Trek writers Tilly and Susan Bridges, which recently won Best LGBTQ Short at the San Diego Movie Awards and was called a “healing balm” by The Matrix director Lilly Wachowski. Jessie’s work is guided by the belief that queerness is a creative force. It’s not simply who we are—it’s something we do. Her filmmaking lives in that spirit of queer futurity—the idea that we are all queer, reaching for something beyond the limited imagination of the present day world, instead reaching for something on horizon and trying to build that future in the here and now, in our every day actions between each other. She aims to have every project be a small constellation of people seeing each other more fully and choosing to make that real.
