she/herFILM
Tassia is a Brazilian writer and director based in London with over 15 years experience. A social justice advocate, she is dedicated to telling inclusive stories that amplify diverse voices and foreground human rights values. In recognition of her commitment to DEI initiatives, she was shortlisted for the 2025 BIMA 100 Champions for Change in the People category.
With a strong background in documentary and branded content, her work centres on character-led storytelling.
She was represented by Media Monks for four years (2022-2025) and has directed advertising content for Converse, TikTok, YouTube, Google, and Under Armour - including a docu-series for Under Armour that spotlights young athletes striving to go pro.
Most recently, she completed her documentary Ties (2025), which won the Audience Choice Award at the 8th Women of the Lens Film Festival.
She is currently developing a new feature documentary project that follows three Ukrainian dancers displaced by war turning to dance as their last form of resistance. This project has been selected for a pitch development workshop featuring mentorship from acclaimed Director Charlie Melville, Photographer & Cinematographer Elisa Iannacone, Executive Producer & Director Emma Whitlock and The Wickers Consultant Editor Jane Mote.
PHOTO
Alongside her film work, Tassia specialises in portrait and lifestyle photography, with a particular focus on underrepresented communities.
ART
Her film collaborations with visual artists inspired a passion that evolved into her own artistic practice. Working across photography, film and installation, she explores how light, colour and space shape the way we see. By playing with over and under-exposure, layering and distortion, she breaks down familiar views opening up new ways of seeing.
Since joining the Picture Berlin artist residency in 2017, Tassia’s work has been shown in group exhibitions in São Paulo, Berlin and London.
