Read MoreHi, I'm Andrea, an award-winning Executive Producer and Change Agent that's produced impact-driven and branded content for a global audience for over 18 years.My work is social and viral, including stand-alone short films as well as episodic documentary series. I've focussed on topics related to the increasing climate crisis: from keystone species awareness, to the illegal pet trade, to the stories of activists and environmental leaders. As well as a feature documentary on the Pope, just in case.I've met and worked with a lot of talented people and have a knack for assembling teams with strong chemistry and passion of the work. I work closely with client partners to help you tell your story: balancing creative, strategy, and impact, with your budget and production. Wherever feasible I look for low-carbon solutions to help tread more lightly on our friend the Earth.For the past 3 years I set up from scratch and ran the Content & Production department at WaterBear, as Head of WaterBear Studios.Powered by sunshine, plants, and nature.Some of my highlights:
- Producing my own award-winning short films on the illegal pet trade
- Working with Greta Thunberg in Sweden and George Monbiot in the UK, producing #NatureNow, which has surpassed 80 million views and won 2 Webby Awards
- Telling the original intersectional environmentalist story of recently retired 100-year-old park ranger Betty Reid Hoskins
- Supporting 1% For The Planet on every production
- Your next big project
