Amy Janes started her career as a documentary editor and producer at a small production company in Boulder, CO. After attending UCLA’s graduate Producing Program, she was hired to run the feature film department Parkchester Pictures, a Paramount based production company.
Her most recent film is the documentary AS SEEN THROUGH THESE EYES, a feature documentary about the surviving art and artists of the Holocaust. It has gone on to win over eight awards around the globe, including Best Foreign Film at the Thessaloniki International Documentary Film Festival.
Made in association with The Sundance Channel and voiced by Maya Angelou, the film will be released theatrically this Fall.

So we finished the doc one day early due to my work schedule. I am really proud of everyone involved. We all busted our butts. One more day, however, would have been very useful to just make sure our story was working.
3:30 am, Monday morning, I left the computer to compress the footage into a format that would burn onto the DVD. Off it went to be judged. Ugh. “We are what you are looking for” in the good words of Linda P. Brown.

Got something to say?
Thanks, Ms. Janes, for posting this video. You inspire parents of youngsters (like ME) to make documentary films.
