ALISON GRIST - Producer/Director

Welcome to my website...

My film and TV production experience is extensive having trained and worked up through the ranks at the BBC. Since turning freelance, I’ve been writing and directing documentary feature films as well as short films and multi-camera shoots.

I’m a creative film-maker and use my ideas and skills to achieve the best in documentary, observational, music and dramatic shoots. I’m confident directing both multi-camera and PSC on location and in the studio.

I’ve worked with a wide variety of presenters and contributors such as Lauren Laverne, Mark Kermode, Phil Tufnell, Richard Hammond, Oliver Stone and Immodesty Blaize.

I’m self-assured in the edit suite, at leading small and large crews and organising complex shoots both home and abroad. I have degrees in English and Broadcast Journalism and I’m based in London.

On this site you’ll find clips from my varied documentaries as well as a selection of films I made for BBC Two’s flagship arts magazine programme, The Culture Show. You can also dip into some fantastic songs I directed with the world’s top artists in my music page. And finally, there’s my blog which aims to offer an insight into my world.
