Amanda Blue has been producing and directing a broad range of documentary films for over 10 years.
Amanda directed and produced the documentary series, YOUNG BLACK FARMERS (for Channel 4), about a group of inner-city black teenagers going to live and work on a Devonshire farm, for which she won both international and domestic awards. Following this, Amanda made the critically acclaimed three-part series, THE MUMMY DIARIES (for Channel 4), about how dying mothers prepare their children for a future without them. In 2008, she produced and directed the award-winning two-part series for BBC2 about former Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott, his inimitable wife Pauline and their journey through the British class system – PRESCOTT: The Class System and Me. Amanda was nominated for a Bafta for Best Director for the series.
Currently she is directing and producing three films for BBC2’s Schools Season (for September broadcast), called the BIG SCHOOL LOTTERY. The films document the experience of children going from primary to secondary school in Birmingham, Europe’s biggest education authority.
