I'm Nodira Noor, a Sydney-based film and media composer and AFTRS graduate with a Master in Screen Music Composition. I create scores for animation, documentary, drama, and advertising, working closely with directors and editors to shape storytelling through orchestral and electronic textures. I thrive on collaboration, attention to detail, and juggling multiple creative projects while delivering musical narratives that support the on-screen world. My career began in Uzbekistan in 2007, where I earned international recognition including a Best Original Soundtrack nomination in 2010 and a Best Song of the Year award at Uzbekistan MMTV. Since relocating to Australia, I have scored numerous film and TV projects and built ongoing collaborations with Australian and Uzbekistan filmmakers. Notable works include Last Donut (HKIFF 2025), Call It Anything (Adelaide 2023, Saint-Tropez 2024), and Not Yet (Flickerfest).
