About

I’m Nicola Bray, a media arts graduate and video editor with a strong passion for storytelling through film, journalism-style news editing, and creative content. I’ve taught myself industry-standard editing tools and built skills across timeline editing, colour grading, sound/video effects, scripting, and on-camera interview support.

I’ve worked with teams in fast-paced environments—editing for ABC/AB C News, contributing to documentary and web content, and collaborating on film projects and competitions. I also bring a focus on accessibility and communication, supported by my creative industry work with the Australian Government’s Youth Advisory Group.
