About Lotus
I’m a writer and director with over 20 years of professional experience spanning writing and directing in Film and TV, prime-time TV production and acting. I’m a graduate of East 15 Acting School who rose from runner through the ranks of production to become an award-winning filmmaker with broadcast credits as a director and writer for BBC 1, Channel 4 and ARTE in Europe.
I have an extensive background in production across all the major UK terrestrial TV channels. My career has been built on a foundation of formal drama training, creating a unique style of working with actors to maximise the translation of drama from set to screen.
A former board member of Directors UK, I am committed to making the industry fair and inclusive. I’ve moderated industry panels, and I speak at a variety of events and for career development training. I’m an alumna of the BBC Directors Training Programme, the Creative England Talent Module and Reclaim The Frame Filmonomics. I won The Script Factory Development Scheme with my first original feature, “Render” and was trained in screenwriting by Lucy Scher and Justine Hart. My haunting screenplay “Undertow” was selected for the BFI Network Live Script Read at Encounters Film Festival.
I’d be incredibly excited to be part of your learning journey to help you further your knowledge, develop your skills and achieve your goals.

I have known Lotus Hannon since 1993, and over the years I’ve had the opportunity to see firsthand her creativity, professionalism, and deep commitment to storytelling and the arts.
What I appreciate most about Lotus’s teaching approach is the way she combines real-world industry experience with encouragement and thoughtful guidance. She has a natural ability to help people feel both challenged and supported, while bringing clarity to complex creative ideas. Her teaching style is insightful, engaging, and highly personalized.
One of the things that has always stood out to me is Lotus’s passion for helping others grow creatively and professionally. Whether discussing film, storytelling, performance, or career development, she brings an exceptional depth of knowledge along with genuine enthusiasm for the success of her students and collaborators.
I would strongly recommend Lotus to anyone looking for a mentor, tutor, or creative coach in film, television, screenwriting, directing, or performance. Students will benefit not only from her expertise, but also from her ability to inspire confidence and creative growth.Lotus is an expert filmmaker, and composing scores for her projects has been a privilege.
