ABOUT
Dorien van de Pas
My love for film and theatre began during my studies in Film and Performing Arts at the University of Nijmegen, under the inspiring guidance of film director, theorist, and writer Eric de Kuyper. Since then, I have had a mission: to enthuse people for beautiful audiovisual productions and to assist creators in developing and producing quality films.
Dial M creative consultancy
I operate within my company, Dial M creative consultancy, which on the one hand refers to Alfred Hitchcock and on the other refers to the wise woman M (played by Judi Dench) in the James Bond films. However, my love for film extends far beyond Hollywood.
'Thank you for your never-ending enthusiasm and passion. What you have achieved for The Netherlands at Eurimages is phenomenal. And in your role as a consultant and Head of New Screen, you have been an extremely valuable sparring partner and advocate for many creators.' Ido Abram, SEE NL
