About Joana

I am a video-maker that loves searching for good stories, specially the ones dealing with political and social issues. In 2013 and 2014, I worked as a TeleSUR correspondent in São Paulo as a reporter but also shooting, videographying and video editing. During this period, I covered the June manifestations of 2013; the World Cup in Brazil in 2014; and the Brazilian presidential elections in 2014. I also participated in larger journalistic works for television, as for example, producing part of the Pachamama Program for Muzungu Producciones Audiovisuales. Before being a television reporter, I worked for 5 years as a freelance journalist for the Brazilian and international independent press. I am part of Desinformémonos. The stories in "The Surreal Genocid of the Guarani Kaiowas", written for the magazine Revista Caros Amigos Especial was one of the finalist of the respected Brazilian Anatel and Anamatra awards. I am graduated in Jornalism (PUC-SP) and in Social Science (USP ).

    Joana went above and beyond with this assignment. She provided me with in depth research as context, was constantly communicating with me throughout the assignment to ensure that she was meeting my needs, and her filming was exceptional. Definitely recommended!

    Niños brasileños y argentinos acompañan la Copa 2014. En la tele, miran a la red balansar y se imaginan ahí, astros del fútbol. El sueño es muy democrático, pero su realización no. Son pocos que logran ser astros del fútbol y el mecanismo para les elegir es perverso. Esa nota fue presentada antes del partido entre Argentina y Suiza.
