Ila Mehrotra
India

I am a dedicated and versatile Assistant Producer/journalist working across multiple platforms, including broadcast and digital channels like BBC4, Channel 4, Vice and ITV, filming primarily in sensitive hard-to-reach access docs with strong current affairs sensibilities. I have a reputation for casting on location, negotiating and maintaining access, building strong relationships and working with vulnerable contributors from survivors of domestic slavery for Channel 4 to very vulnerable young adults leaving Islamic faith of ITV. I’m a confident self shooter, experienced using a variety of equipment, incl. Canon C300 and Sony A7 S II. I have 5+ years experience editing on Final Cut Pro and Premiere Pro. I have worked as an investigative reporter and am confident to film covertly. To personally balance the demands of passionately working in films, I'm also a trained yoga teacher and practitioner.
