https://vimeo.com/lindabaxtersands Artistic and versatile, I thrive on crafting series and singles that create social change, from Davina McCall: Sex, Myths & the Menopause for Channel 4 (SBAFTA & RTS nominated, AIB win) which pushed the Royal College of GPs to train doctors on this subject to Imagine: Douglas Stuart: Love, Hope and Grit for BBC 1, (SBAFTA win) which calls for more literature about queer working class lives. I drive the process from greenlight to delivery, building the team, managing the casting and research process, directing the team on location, and crafting the films in the edit, while working closely with the commissioning editor. I enjoy scriptwriting for different genres and can write to the tone and pace of any programme, from a fun social history format Back in Time (BBC 2) to a high profile arts doc Spielberg at 60 (BBC 2). I have directed and produced a wide range of on screen talent: Lucy Worsley, Sara Cox, Alice Roberts, Mark Kermode and Mary Beard to name a few and pride myself on drawing out the best from shy contributors. Im a very visual director and enjoy tailoring the form of the visual to reflect the sense of the film.A few samples of my work:Killing Sherlock: Lucy Worsley on the case of Conan Doyle Killing Sherlock: Lucy Worsley on the case of Conan DoyleImagine: Stephen Frears: Director for Hire Imagine: Director for Hire: Stephen FrearsDavina McCall: Sex, Myths and the Menopause https://www.channel4.com/programmes/davina-mccall-sex-myths-and-the-menopause Read Less
