I’m an award-winning self-shooter with a Documentary Directing MA from NFTS. I have worked on a range of broadcast docs and I recently released my first feature which premiered at Hot Docs and Sheffield Doc Fest. Some of my credits include Producing/Directing a BBC education series about bilingual babies (https://www.bbc.co.uk/tiny-happy-people/bilingual). I was DV director on two Bafta-nominated programmes - the C4 Dispatches obs doc 'Safe at Last: Inside a Women's refuge' (https://twitter.com/c4dispatches/status/1100485658513231873?lang=en) and BBC iplayer's sex education series 'Mimi on a Mission'.
My feature doc 'Faith and Branko' premiered at Hot Docs 202, Sheffield Doc Fest 2020, and was selected for Dok Leipzig's Golden Section/Audience Award categories. It received the jury's special mention at In-Edit Barcelona and won the best documentary award at SEE Fest LA. It was recently acquired by Al Jazeera for broadcast in 2022 and by the VOD platform Filmin (for Spain and Latin America). Here's a review by Screen Daily: (https://www.screendaily.com/reviews/faith-and-branko-sheffield-doc/fest-review/5150591.article)
I'm resourceful, narrative-focused and perceptive with a genuine interest in other people and their stories. I have worked with sensitive subject matter and vulnerable contributors and I'm good with access and building trust. I also have a lot of international /cross-cultural experience - I worked in India for 2 years in total (Delhi, Trivandrum and Mumbai), I have also lived in Serbia and Belgium and have done a lot of filming with the Roma community (in Serbia and Kosovo).
