About Me
I had the pleasure of working with Joanna as Edit Producer on a recent Channel 4 series. Jo is an incredibly skilled scriptwriter and crafter. Not only is she able to refine raw material in a way that makes it shine, she digs deep to find the very best of everything she works with and presents it in a way that sings in the given genre. Not only that, her purpose, intent and overall commitment to deadlines is impeccable. I would highly recommend her as a serious asset to any team, especially in the edit.
I have known Jo for five years and she is now one of the first people I contact when crewing up for a new series. Jo is a brilliant edit producer - she is a great writer, has visual flair and has huge attention to detail. Jo is also a wonderful team player and is a very good mentor for junior members of the team. She is also a talented Producer Director. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Jo to any production.

Jo is a pleasure to work with. Her attention to detail in the edit is second to none and she approaches everything with a positive attitude. I would absolutely have her on my team again.
Joanna is a highly experienced and hugely creative Producer Director who has been working with me over the last 7 months on BBC2’s Gardeners’ World. She worked predominantly in a small team and managed her own schedule to script, produce and direct insert VTs for hour long shows and also to produce fast turnaround items at Flower show events. I have consistently found Joanna to be hugely enthusiastic, always generating new ideas as part of the larger team with excellent attention to detail. She has a creative flair to bring stories to life both in the field and in the edit. Her completed films always have a strong narrative arc and are always distinctive. She has also helped out enormously edit producing other PDs films, she has a talent to be able to get to the heart of the narrative very quickly and produce an editorially strong film. I would recommend her highly and look forward to working with her again.
Jo Grace is everything you want in a director. She’s creative, experienced, hard-working and knows how to tell a good story. She gets on very well with the on-screen talent from the most experienced in the business to those just finding their feet. She always brings out the best in their performances and treats them with respect. She is good at producing both long and short-form films. She PD'd some excellent 60min programmes for Countryfile and shaped the editorially beautifully. She is a fantastic team player and serves as an excellent role model. Enthusiastic, versatile, resourceful and personable, she'll always be an asset to any team.’
Jo is a hard-working and motivated Director, who is committed to getting the very best out of a story, contributors and locations. She deals with difficult situations intelligently and creatively and is very supportive of her researchers and her team. Jo is an asset to have on any production.
