Manuela Lumb
Award winning, highly experienced creative executive of children’s Film and TV.
Throughout my career I have produced and commissioned world-class content meeting the needs of our fast-changing young audiences ranging between 2- 16 years. My speciality is producing multi-genre content.
My experience has been especially enhanced by working in both the commissioning and producer roles. This has given me a distinctive expertise across the children’s media industry from original creative concept design; implementation; brand development and financial management.
With first class international contacts, I thrive on collaboration to deliver exciting, innovative and commercially successful results, on budget and on time.
