Emily James, Director

Originally from the United States, Emily James came to England to study history and philosophy of science at Cambridge. She eventually moved on to the National Film and Television School, where she completed the Documentary Direction Course in December 2000. In her films, Emily combines her interests in history, politics and film language with a wry sense of humor and just a little more than a pinch of irony. A Brief History of Cuba, in d minor was her graduation project. Her second year film, Wag the Dogma has already won a number of prizes and has been broadcast on Channel 4 and Film Four. Emily completed her first commissioned film, The Luckiest Nut in the World for Channel 4’s Alt TV strand. In 2004, she made the four part series Don’t Worry for Channel Four Television in the UK. The series is a satirical investigative current affairs series presented by a gang of credulous puppets. She is currently executive producer of a number of short films, whose subject matter ranges from Einstein’s Theory of Relativity to the plight of migrant workers. www.emily-james.com
