Nicholas Blakemore is one of the most talented filmmakers and current affairs producers I have worked with. He has a quick, creative intellect and a aflame for visual impact and telling, nuanced detail. He combines this with journalistic judgment that is rock solid. His films have a powerful immediate impact; but they also leave a lasting resonance, with different layers of meaning and content. He is thorough, thoughtful and energetic in pursuit of the content he needs to produce the film he wants. He also has a quiet, engaging, easy-going manner with contributors and colleagues alike that helps him get the best out of others.
