What people say

“The best thing about Helen at Nomad Films is that she totally ‘gets it’. She has filmed and edited a number of videos for the Flying Fruit Fly Circus and each time has quickly understood the brief and produced a film that perfectly captured the mood and told the story we wanted to tell. Helen is always professional, creative and a joy to work with.”

Richard Hull, Executive Director | Flying Fruit Fly Circus

“Nomad films have been a pleasure to work, are always professional, and have produced highly creative content, on time and on budget”

Jules Boag, Exhibitions Coordinator | MAMA – Murray Art Museum Albury
