About me

Hi there! My name is Hayley Turner, I am creative individual based in Melbourne, Australia. I am currently studying for a Bachelor’s Degree in Film, where I have immersed myself in the craft of filmmaking, where i have experienced roles in every aspect from pre-production to post-production.

While I specialise in the editing and camera departments, I've eagerly embraced opportunities to expand my skill set across various areas of production. Whether it's the producing side of the project to creating a beautiful narrative, or combining footage, I thrive on the creative challenges that filmmaking presents.

In addition to my love for filmmaking, I have a great eye for photography, particularly in the area of music. I capture the raw energy and emotion of live performances, providing a visual narrative that resonates with audiences.

I'm committed to building my craft and expanding the possibilities for visual media storytelling. I can't wait to show you my work and to collaborate with you on new creative projects.
