Ana Luisa Santos (born 03 July 1985), is a pioneer in the wildlife film making industry as the first female Portuguese wildlife filmmaker publicly known[1][2].

She started her career working as a Civil Engineer and then worked in the Centre for Rapid and Sustainable Product Development [3][4] (CDRp) in Portugal. Santos also participated as a volunteer in the program European Voluntary Service in Turkey[5][6].

After moving to The Netherlands, Santos started her career as a wildlife filmmaker[2] working on multiple wildlife documentaries for Japan's public broadcaster NHK which included The Paternal Bond: Barbary Macaques (2015) in Morocco, [7][8]; Pyrenees Mountain (2017) in Spain[9] and the Japanese re-versioning of A Wild Fox Life (2019)[10] in The Netherlands.

In the Netherlands, Santos worked for the cinema wildlife films Holland: Natuur in de Delta (2015)[11] for which she co-filmed the closing sequences using the self built Ateles Films drone[12]; and Wild Amsterdam (2018)[13] in which she also featured in a scene with seagulls in Amsterdam.

Santos also worked on the BBC Natural World Jungle Animal Hospital (2015) and for her independent Ateles Films production, which was aired worldwide on Nat Geo WILD and Arte, called Return of the Spider Monkeys (2016) narrated by Hayley Atwell[14] that follows the life of an orphaned spider monkey called Infinity after she is released back into the jungle of Guatemala.

She directed and wrote A Wild Fox Life (2019) filmed in the Netherlands which is about the life cycle of a red fox family that lives in the Oostvaardersplassen nature reserve. It was premiered in France 5 (France Televisions)[15][16], NHK and ServusTV[17] (Terra Mater).

Santos, since 2014, works in the establishment of Ateles Films as a independent production wildlife company, which she co-owns together with her business partner, actively producing blue chip wildlife documentaries for the more diverse channels and countries around the globe.

Education

She studied Civil Engineer (BSc) and Product Design Engineering (MsC.) in the Polytechnic Institute of Leiria (IPL) in Portugal[18].
