Rebecca Carpenter

Rebecca Carpenter is a Los Angeles-based writer, director, and producer with over 230 episodes of digital television under her belt, plus an Award-Winning docuseries Voices of Woolsey', capturing the 2018 Malibu fires. A unifier of people, she is skilled in building strong creative teams. She especially loves the unique niche of working with children. It is her life’s mission to create excellent, meaningful media that impacts youth with positive content and empowers them to also be changemakers. Her creative concepts directly increase views and subscribers: her show Looney Tunes Lunchtime Challenge increased channel subscribers by 4 million in 8 months. Prior to falling in love with the YouTube space, Rebecca worked with some of the best in the business as an assistant at Walt Disney Studios (including Marvel and Lucas Films), Dreamworks TV, Discovery, OWN, TLC, and The CW, just to name a few. She also spent four years in the camera and production trenches, learning the ins and outs of every department and building the scrappiness that is needed for indie productions. She had a brief stint as a DP and shot kids’ shows for DreamworksTV and Awesomeness TV. She also shot a documentary in Kenya.

Rebecca has a Bachelor of Arts from Houghton University in International Relations and Intercultural Studies.

When not making movies, Rebecca loves playing with her two goats Cupid and Freckles, entering banjo contests with her mates, collecting 80s dresses, and consuming dark chocolate.

The History

Hedy Pictures is about making the type of media that moves a soul. That brings love and laughter into the world. It’s namesake: Jadwiga Swiech Churbuck, or known by her friends as Hedwig or “Hedy”, always brought the fun to the party. She had a strong sense for life and observing people: that led to great storytelling, which she passed on to her daughter Alice, who in turn passed it on to her daughter, Rebecca.
