Alice Jones
Nutopia
Producer / Director
After working for many years on BBC Science shows (including Human Universe, Forces of Nature with Professor Brian Cox, The One Show and Stargazing Live) Alice’s first full length documentary as a Producer/Director was for National Geographic Channel’s One Strange Rock – a landmark series, hosted by Will Smith with Darren Aronofsky acting as EP. Amongst experienced and award-winning fellow directors on the series, Alice not only held her own but excelled, delivering the series finale ‘Home’ which follows the journey to space and back again of NASA’s most experienced astronaut, Peggy Whitson, wrapped around the compelling story of our planet. As a Director, Alice has shown a mature and remarkable ability to infuse factual storytelling with emotional narratives and her episode has been praised for its dazzling storytelling and visuals. Before starting her TV career, she received an MSc in Science Communication at Imperial College London in 2006 and a degree in Natural Sciences from Clare College, University of Cambridge 2004. Her goal is to bring audiences closer to the complexity, diversity and beauty of the natural world, by filming characterful sequences with people and animals from all corners of the Earth.
