TANIA EMERY

About

Tania Emery is a writer, director and producer of distinctive and unique films that use striking art direction and music to emphasize her penchant for absurdist narratives in plush settings.

Her latest film, a 20-minute comedy - ‘How to Succeed in Biscuits Without Really Trying’ -stars Olivier Award winning actor Henry Goodman, Indra Ové, Daniel Crossley, Charlie Rawes and Jack Chissick and is set to launch later in 2023. A feature version of the film is in early stages of development. 

Other film projects include the comedy short ‘Working Lunge’ starring Jaqueline Boatswain, Daniel Crossley and Ray Waring, as well as her short documentary about the Regent Street Cinema, narrated by Sir Tim West, which helped raise £6.9 million for its recent refurbishment.

Before spinning 180* behind the camera, Tania told stories as an actor in theatre, TV and film, working with some of our great contemporary story tellers; Tom Stoppard, Michael Grandage and Ben Wheatley.

She also starred alongside Harry and Luke Treadaway in Film 4’s Michael Powell Award-winning feature ‘Brothers of the Head’. You might also know Tania from her stint as series regular on ITV’s iconic ‘The Bill’.

A trained dancer, Tania brings her instinctive understanding of rhythm and pacing to her films using fluid camera movement and dynamic editing.
