Hi, I’m Cameron Milbrot — a Los Angeles-area Production Assistant and Camera Assistant with hands-on experience supporting video, podcast, and studio shoots. I bring strong technical instincts with camera, audio, and lighting gear, and I’m quick to troubleshoot on the fly.
I thrive in live environments with tight turnarounds and have a knack for keeping sets organized, safe, and efficient. I enjoy coordinating with hosts, guests, and crews to ensure smooth runs of show and high-quality captures.
