I've shot a number of films for Dina. She is a very good director, and working with her on location is always a pleasure. She aims for the highest aesthetic and narrative quality attainable and I'm proud of the work I have done with her.
She seems genuinely unflappable, is very collaborative and always maintains her calm focus in the face of the constant logistical upheaval inherent on a documentary film shoot. She is well prepared and clearly communicates her narrative goals, while being flexible enough to allow talented crew the space to do their best work.
Dina is excellent at people management and maintaining good morale, providing the framework for happy collaboration between crew members. She’s also very sensitive with contributors, allowing us to get the best from the subjects we are filming.
I have worked closely with Dina in production. She is extremely committed and passionate about the programmes she makes. She copes with change incredibly well and has the creative vision to adapt and make unexpected situations work to her advantage in an artful and insightful way, whilst also having the gumption to stick to her guns when she feels something is right for the programme.
She is very perceptive - recognising the pressures and workload of her team and is skilled at being able to effectively manage this alongside her own editorial workload. She is clear and courteous to colleagues and contributors and is a definite leader who you know would never expect you to do anything she wouldn’t be willing to do herself.
Dina was my speaker rehearsal coach for TEDxBristol 2019 and to say she elevated my performance is an understatement. She took my talk from being a GCSE powerpoint performance to something meaningful, punchy and connecting.
Dina understands story and deeper meaning more than anyone I've ever met (so it's no surprise that she works with the likes of Netflix and the BBC). She also has a really instinctive approach in how to work in a 'physical' way, so you feel natural and the best you can be when performing.
I would work with Dina again in a heartbeat and I thoroughly intend to whenever I or a member of my team needs to walk on a stage. I would recommend anyone with a modicum of sense who is looking to elevate their pitch or presentation - whilst having fun in the process - to have a word first with Dina. She'll make every difference.
