Producer/Director and Edit Producer/Director for TV and Online/Branded Content. An experienced story-crafter for short-, medium- and long-form, creating compelling stories with visual flair. Reels available here: https://vimeo.com/anikapilnei
 
Experienced with a wide range of talent and influencers; excellent people skills and work experience in 30+ countries worldwide. Sensitive access work with people from different religious backgrounds, politics, military and intelligence. Fluent in 4 languages (English, German, French, Hebrew). Based in London/UK, with available base in Frankfurt/Germany, Vermont/USA, and Tel Aviv/Israel. 
 
I have worked on observational and retrospective documentaries as well as formatted fact-ent shows; I have also had the opportunity to format a 4 x 30’ travel series and 1 x 60’ Specialist Factual program for PBS.
 
Experienced in the edit with working across a couple of edits simultaneously, dealing with VFX and plenty of historic, news and personal archive. Versatility is my strength, and I have an insatiable appetite to dig deep into stories working across true crime, (ancient) history, archaeology, and travel-adventure-food shows. 
 
Some of my work has gone on to win awards in the TV and the Online Content arena. I directed two Destination Canada campaigns, short obs doc travelogues shot in a cinematic style, that won the Gold and Bronze at CMA. 

TV credits range from Nat Geo to Netflix, PBS, CNN, Channel 4, Channel 5, ITV, and Discovery Network. Branded Content work includes major brands such as AmEx, De Beers, Meta, Barclays, Canon, Waitrose/JLP, and Destination Canada. Read Less
