London Houghton

Biography: London Houghton is a 10 year old filmmaker, writer, director and actor from Seal Beach, California. Passionate and extremely curious about story-telling, movies and film-making from a very young age, London began creating and editing her own stop animation films at the age of 5. It wasn't long before she began making her way onto film sets in order to gain experience and learn more about the art of film-making. In 2023 at the age of 9, London wrote, co-directed and starred in her first film, 'Breaking Plans'. Dedicated to being involved with the entire process, London read with every auditioning actor, set the vision for the film production and scouted locations with the crew, worked directly with the editors and composer, and spent a day at the Technicolor facility in Los Angeles to color grade the film. The film was completed in June of 2024. She is a proud member of the Women In Film organization, and over 90% of the team on her film 'Breaking Plans' are female. London is also an ambitious and devoted actor, both in film and on stage, and her performance in the role of 'Emma' illustrates her natural ability and raw talent. She has since performed in a variety of projects, including music videos (Lola Kristine: 'The Other Side'), commercials and theater. As a humble yet confident person, London has identified with and continues to surround herself with positive mentors, while also making sure to enjoy life as a young person with her family and friends. In addition to film-making and performing arts, London enjoys gymnastics, tennis and has recently become interested in entrepreneurship, which she is exploring by creating and running her own small businesses. London is a kind person and lives by the motto... "Always be kind... you don't always know what someone might be going through."
