Alice JOHNSON is a journalist and film critic.

Alice Johnson is a Ghanaian cultural journalist, multimedia producer, and founder of AJ4short, a digital platform dedicated to reviewing and celebrating cinema and theatre from Africa and its Diaspora. Through essays, reviews, interviews, and vlogs, AJ4short offers a grounded lens on African storytelling, with a focus on precolonial narratives, cultural memory, and underrepresented voices. Alice's original works which include stage plays, radio dramas, articles, and screenplays, explore con- temporary African experiences with nuance.
She is an alumna of the Multichoice Talent Factory West Africa and a 2023 Inside Nollywood Film Journalism Fellow. Her film criticism work was featured at the British Museum's 2024 British Empire Exhibition Conference. As a host, panel moderator, and festival collaborator, she bridges digital, live, and broadcast platforms. At the heart of her work is a commitment to expanding critical discourse on African story telling and amplifying its global presence.

In 2025, she participates in the Durban Talents Press workshop (Durban Festival & Encounters FilmFest) and her articles are published on Africiné Magazine (Dakar).
