About me

Hello I’m Ella Bennett, a filmmaker and editor from London. I specialise in directing and editing short film narrative and film promotions. I aim to mentally challenge and thought provoke an audience to reflect beyond the courageous and solemn themes I particularly like focus on. Studying a BA Hons Digital Film (Fast Track), I have attended; film festivals, Q&A’s and master classes in London, New York to Paris aiming to expand my knowledge and understanding about job roles within the film industry. Researching into my chosen area, I aim to further expand my knowledge, experiences and skills as a filmmaker.
