World-renowned cinematographer Nicola Daley joins the jury for the FilmLight Colour Awards. Nicola has shot documentaries everywhere from Iraq to North Korea, and now focuses on drama and commercials.

In 2014, Nicola was only the eighth woman in Australian history to be accredited into the Australian Society of Cinematographers, and in 2020 she was invited to join the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
