KIND WORDS
“Nicole Oziel is one of those rare creatives who truly has her pulse on the beat of storytelling. While collaborating with her at Bravebird, I was consistently impressed by her dual-threat approach: she is highly organized and logical, yet deeply creative and intuitive.
Nicole doesn’t just “edit”—she listens, adapts, feels, and collaborates with total transparency through every stage of the process. She is consistent, reliable, and carries a positive energy that makes the post-production process fun. Her work is exceptional, but her character is what makes her a must-hire for me. I couldn’t recommend her more highly!
If you have the chance to work with Nicole, please do not hesitate. She is as reliable as she is brilliant and does so with pure joy and a smile.
Thank you, Nicole!”
“Nicole is an outstanding video editor and storyteller who I had the pleasure of working with when she led, managed, produced, and edited our documentary on our Student Scholarship Program in Kenya, East Africa.
I was very impressed with her strong organizational skills, attention-to-detail, and ability to get things done. She is extremely reliable, honest, empathetic, understanding, and trustworthy, and she is incredibly knowledgable about videography, editing, and storytelling.
I highly recommend Nicole as an outstanding professional who is very passionate about her work and making a positive impact.”

“I recently hired Nicole to edit a wedding film, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the result! I had a very specific style in mind, and Nicole went above and beyond to study everything from that style. She executed it flawlessly, and the final product was perfect. Throughout the process, she was excellent with deadlines and her communication was top-notch, keeping me in the loop every step of the way. I would absolutely hire Nicole again without hesitation. Highly recommend!”

“Nicole edited a short film I produced and did an amazing job. She was very professional, kind and patient. Even if I just wanted to see how something could look with a certain edit, she happily made the changes for me. I would definitely hire her again for future projects!”
“I have hired Nicole to create video segments for professional performance videos for my two virtual choirs. She does excellent work, is highly reliable, and very professional. She is also a very good communicator. I would highly recommend Nicole to anyone who is considering contracting her.”
“I’ve hired Nicole to edit several videos and I’m very pleased with the quality of her work. She has strong storytelling abilities, a good sense of rhythm and pacing within an edit, and is able to pick out key moments of actors’ performances and b-roll selects. Nicole is dependable and a pleasure to work with!”
