TeamSASS Productions is a London-based boutique production company founded by husband-and-wife team Amanda and Steve Bright. Combining Amanda’s experience as an award-winning writer, producer and Olivier-nominated actor with Steve’s background as an award-winning photographer and filmmaker, TeamSASS creates bold, cinematic and emotionally resonant stories across film, TV and digital media.
Since its inception in 2019, the company has produced four independent short films and created original work for BBC Ideas, BBC Radio 4, Shakespeare’s Globe and Little Angel Theatre. Their BBC Ideas documentaries have reached over 150K views, and their shorts have been screened at Odeon, Rich Mix, Picturehouse Central and the Victoria & Albert Museum.
TeamSASS specialises in character-driven stories that celebrate underrepresented voices, blending humour, heart and cinematic style.
Amanda
Since graduating from the world-renowned Royal Central School of Speech and Drama in 2003, I have been acting in theatre, TV and Film, performing in a variety of productions from Shakespeare’s Globe to Netflix.
I am also an award winning writer - a graduate of both the Soho Theatre Young Writers Programme & Royal Court ‘Critical Mass’ writers programme.
A level 6 in British Sign Language and an ADA trained audio describer, I’m passionate about making the arts accessible to all. I relish opportunities to integrate my access skills with my acting, writing and producing work.
Steve
I love to shoot inspirational people in the landscapes that inspire THEM, creating cinematic, aspirational images that elevate and uplift my subjects.
I find huge inspiration in people who have dedicated themselves to acheiving a goal, and much of my work is about celebrating the skill, stregth, determination and hard work that it takes to do that.
Equally happy perfecting a technical lighting set up in the studio or trying to stop my softbox from blowing away on a glacier at Everest base camp, I love to push himself to the limits and create epic, cinematic work regardless of the situation.
