Jeanette Aguilar

ABOUT ME

I’m Jeanette, a Los Angeles–based production leader originally from Northern California, working across film, television, sports content, branded campaigns, photography, and digital-first media. My background spans line producing, production management, and production finance and operations, supporting projects from early development through delivery.

I bring a calm, organized, and solutions-driven approach to complex productions—translating creative ideas into clear schedules, budgets, and production plans that keep teams aligned and moving forward. My experience includes scripted and unscripted series, documentary and sports programming, studio and field photo/video shoots, and technology-enabled, mobile-first content where fast timelines and clean handoffs are critical.

Most recently, I contracted with DLP Media Group in a production finance and operations capacity, supporting Amazon Prime Video programming and partner content tied to Thursday Night Football.

Across my career, I’ve partnered with production companies, networks, agencies, and in-house teams, managing both lean and multimillion-dollar budgets while leading cross-functional crews under real-world constraints. My work sits at the intersection of creative production, logistics, and financial oversight—focused on protecting the schedule, maintaining financial discipline, and delivering high-quality work smoothly.

While I continue to take on select freelance and contract work, I’m now focused on a long-term, in-house leadership role as a Director of Production or Line Producer, where I can provide steady oversight, strong production infrastructure, and hands-on support to a growing team.

Outside of work, I spend time hiking Southern California trails—usually with a podcast in my ears—tracking down great local breweries, and shooting still photography.
