Channel 4 Drama alum Isabella de Rosario has joined Me+You Productions as a development executive.

Me+You Productions, a U.K.-based independent film and television production company, was founded by producers Richard Yee and Krishnendu Majumdar. The company’s drama series I Am for Channel 4, written and directed by Dominic Savage, was nominated for a BAFTA (lead actress, Samantha Morton), two Broadcast Awards and a Royal Television Society Award, and won a WFTV award.

In addition to delivering a second season of I Am, Me+You’s development slate includes series written by Vic Levin, Stephen S. Thompson, Tony Grisoni, Asim Chaudhry, Bekka Bowling and Aki Omoshaybi, and a feature film with Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard.

As a development executive at Channel 4 Drama, De Rosario worked across production, development and the new writing schemes. Earlier in her career, she served as development coordinator on the BBC’s drama commissioning team. De Rosario joins Me+You from Slim Film + Television, where she served as a development executive and script editor for the company’s adaptation of Around the World in 80 Days.

De Rosario said: “I’m delighted to have joined the team at Me+You—they have a brilliant track record, are working with exceptional writers and directors and bring a uniquely collaborative and inclusive approach to every project.”
