Dionne is one of Jihlava’s 2015 European Emerging Producers who has years of experience in film, TV and media production including the making of blockbuster films such as Kubrick's “Eyes Wide Shut”, “A Kind of Hush”, “The Lost Son” and the “Harry Potter” series. She has honed the art of developing unique programmes for wide and niche audiences on both sides of the Atlantic. Dionne's first prominent artistic effort was as the festival director of the inaugural Camden Film Festival: Made in Camden. For which she designed and programmed locally shot films including “The Ladykillers” and cult indie “Withnail and I” to a sold out theatre, and worked in partnership with Roundhouse, ICO, Odeon and MTV Europe. She then went on to curate the conceptual Solar Cinema with short films on wide subject matters: from green and global south issues to South East Asian, Indian, and Bangladeshi cinema, at London's biggest green fair in Regent's Park. Her programmes for British Museum “Waves of Protest” (2011) and “Changing the World” series (2012) were well received by an oversubscribed audience. In 2013 she engaged the audience with an intricately woven transmedia presentation of fine art, film and online display. As a film producer and director, she has worked with Kevin MacDonald's team as the UK producer of “OnePeople” (2012), a collaborative documentary. She is currently working with director George Amponsah on “The Hard Stop” a feature film that follows childhood friends of Mark Duggan the young man who was killed by armed police. This event is known as the spark that set the 2011 UK riots in motion – the worse civil unrest in recent British history.
