"I have never worked with anyone who has demonstrated more committment and passion for the job than Sara. I was and am profoundly impressed by her pursuit of excellence in programme making. If the words "dedicated proffessional" did not exist in English - or in any other language - you would create them to describe Sara Nason as a television programme maker!"

— Allan Campbell, Presenter for BBC Alba

 

"A fantastic eye as a filmmaker; brilliant with all kinds of contributors/ subject matter and a great sense of humour. I have known Sara for 20 years. She is a person of impeccable honesty and probity.

— Teresa Smith Former Dep. Editor Channel 4 News Indie Fund and Exec Producer/director

 

"Sara is an extremely dedicated and creative film-maker, who puts her all into everything she does. In addition to her skills as a director she is also very handy with a camera and combines a strong sense of composition with a flair for story-telling."

— Camilla Deakin Lupus Films

 

"Sara is one of the best film makers we have had the pleasure to work with. Sara always gives 200% of her time, energy and passion. Her films consistently over deliver, always eliciting comments and getting noticed. With a visual flair and skills to match, she researches, writes, preps and shoots all her films herself and works collaboratively with editors, execs and commissioners alike to produce the best possible film. We love working with Sara because you know what your going to get at the end of the day is brilliant. I'm loathe to say she's a safe pair of hands but in these economically difficult times we all need to know a film maker will come through with the goods."

— Jacqui Timberlake, Head of Business and Production Guardian Films

— Michael Tait Head of Development and Executive Producer Guardian Films

— Bill Cran, Founder and Award Winning Film-maker - InVision Productions

 

"Sara has strong visual flair and brings a documentary style to her work in short films. She is particularly good at finding powerful stories and using imaginative filming techniques. I can strongly recommend Sara as an imaginative and visual producer. "

— Peter Barron -  Deputy Editor of Channel 4 News & former Editor of BBC Newsnight

 

"Sara is a thoughtful and sensitive film-maker with the precious ability to get close to her subjects."

— Andrew Carey, CNN Senior Producer
