Mila Davis Joins Uppercut as Executive Producer

Creative post-production boutique Uppercut welcomes Mila Davis as executive producer. Mila joins the expanding team in Los Angeles, where the company opened an office last year.

Mila Davis majored in film and TV in college. She began her entertainment career at TBWA\Chiat\Day, working her way up from an entry-level position to become a producer. She left Chiat to go work on Lexus at Team One Advertising. Shortly after, she was given the opportunity to return to Chiat to work on PlayStation and Apple. She worked there for many years as an executive producer on Pepsi, adidas, and other brands.

Mila strives to surround herself with creative and passionate artists. She was always interested in the post-production process, which led her to become an executive producer/managing director at Stitch Editing. She's collaborated with clients such as Amazon, EA, Activision, Facebook, Google, Cuervo, Honda, Hyundai, Nike, Microsoft, and Samsung. Every job was an opportunity to help artists and brands fulfil their vision to tell compelling stories. She also enjoys working on long-form documentary projects.

Having spent much of her childhood in Los Angeles, Mila is enthusiastic about the opportunity to further grow Uppercut's new studio home in Culver City. In her role, she will guide and support Uppercut's roster of editors, clients, and collaborators.

Of joining Uppercut, Mila said "Uppercut and Micah Scarpelli are different from most of the post houses. I love that all the offices support one another as one company. I look forward to building the Los Angeles office and strengthening the Uppercut brand."

Uppercut owner editor Micah Scarpelli added "Last year was a big year for us, and this year will be even bigger. We're happy to have Mila onboard, and we look forward to her playing a pivotal role in expanding Uppercut's presence on the west coast."
